Zzzz

Well, at least I'm catching up on my sleep this week. Took a nap at 6:30 PM, and woke up at 12:30 AM.

Fed Mimi and Zara, who were restless. Zara jumped the gate when I went out to the car to get some stuff. I was annoyed, and said, "ZA-RA" in a stern voice, and she jumped the gate to go back into the kitchen. They were hungry though. I have to remember that I've been feeding them earlier in the morning because I'm going into work earlier. I don't take Mimi saying that she's hungry very seriously because she always thinks that she's hungry. And she looks like Jabba the Hutt, if Jabba was a calico. Zara polished off her canned food, which is unusual for her because she likes to take a breather in the middle. Then I gave her dry food, and she started on that. Sorry, Zara.

I fed myself too. I need to go take care of Harlee, who is also restless, do a couple of things, and then go back to bed.

Gorgeous Day

Gorgeous day: not too cold, not too hot, and sunny.

Because I stayed late the last couple of days, I left early to run errands. I learned that I can take my placement tests for Heartland down here in Lincoln. That will save me a trip. And I gave them my proof of residency.

I was tempted to go to the (not so new now) tea place downtown, but I don't really need to spend money on probably expensive tea. On the other hand, it's wise to go to new restaurants or stores in Lincoln because a lot of them wind up closing. But I'm home now. And I need to eat lunch.

Zara made a big fuss over me when I got home. Awww.

Quiche

I have a tomato-basil quiche in the oven. It required a lot of prep work, and made a mess of the kitchen. I had a small mishap in which the crust slid off of the pie pan, but it's probably okay. I've got a lot of dishes soaking, plus the cat dishes because Mimi's getting fractious. You could tell time by her stomach ;)

Before my nap, I started to read a book about the Leeward Islands in the Caribbean, but found that the book wasn't what I expected it to be. I was doggedly reading it anyway, when I wondered, why am I doing that? Just return it to the library. So I've got it downstairs to return tomorrow. Added: St. Kitts and Nevis are on my list of places to visit though. I wish that Trip Advisor hadn't turned into a hotel search service though.
