I got mostly Bs on this report card, which sucks. I'm certain I'll still have my scholarship, but if not I'll have to take a short summer class.

I have an interview at Macy's on Tuesday, which *twirls finger* but a job is a job and I need one (so I can start paying off my massive vet bill and also save to buy a new back door).

I'm almost finished knitting my homosplosion scarf (it's a rainbow!), and I think today I'm going to bake some Red Velvet Cupcakes. Just need to go buy some milk and cream cheese (and maybe more powdered sugar).

It's been a year, today, since Casey died, and about a month and a half since Arthur :( I still really miss them. It's still hard to look at pictures of orange kitties.

I started reading Neil Gaiman (and Terry Pratchet)'s Good Omens OMG HOW HAVE I NOT READ IT BEFORE WHAT HAVE I BEEN MISSING. Actually, I have a Tumblr post about it that I will cross-post in a few minutes...

ETA: I'm sorry. I get excited when people mention the existance of my personal lord and savior, Neil Gaiman.

Thanks, lovely. Arthur was a 13-month old kitten, and Casey was my 11-year old dog, so both losses sucked.

As soon as it is finish, I will post pictures of my scarf! I think it's really pretty and I'm kind of in love with it.

I LOVE NEIL. I REALLY LOVE NEIL SO MUCH OMG. I've read a lot of his other works, but never Good Omens.

I definitely will!

I've lost five in the past year alone :( It's been a really tough year.

American Gods was my favorite, but Good Omens might be right up there! It's so very good.

Sorry about your kitties. :( My hedgehog Penelope died a couple of weeks ago. It really sucks to lose a family pet.

That is one of my very favorite books! I started rereading it not long ago, but I got sidetracked by the Hunger Games books. I love everything by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett. They are awesome! Neil wrote the episode of Doctor Who that aired last night, so I've been squeeing about that for a while.

It does. Especially because my pets are sometimes all I have to keep me going :( But I have four other cats, and a new dog (Casey was my 11-year old dog) and so I'm mostly okay.

I KNOW. It was really good. I love Neil Gaiman so much, I can't believe I hadn't read Good Omens before. Are the Hunger Games books good? I keep meaning to try them, but I never remember to try and find them online. (I'm in a community on here that posts ebooks for free...it's very nice.)

I really liked the Hunger Games books. I read each of them in a day so they're pretty quick reads, but also you can't put them down. You should join the digilit community if you aren't already part of it. That's where I get most of my ebooks.

Good Omens is amazing. Especially for us SPN fans, a lovely book starring a demon named Crowley...
