Go ahead and laugh, I don't mind...

For those who know me, especially those that have worked with me, you know how clumsy I am. I constantly run into walls, door facings, furniture...anything that has substance. Well I now have the end-all be-all story to tell. Last night I cut my big toe open ON A CARDBOARD BOX! And I mean I really cut it open, as in gushing blood, couldn’t get it to stop, thinking I’d have to go to the hospital to get a few stitches. After about 15 minutes I got it to mostly stop, enough so that I knew the ER wasn’t in my immediate future. That’s got to be the worst paper cut in the history of paper products. I emailed my story to my friend, Melissa, and she said she couldn't stop laughing. Hope you find it funny, too.

By the way, the kitties were very concerned about me and gathered around to make sure I was okay. They can't have the person who provides treats dropping dead, now can they?

Kitty pics!

This is Jiggs. I call him our rescue kitty, because when we got him, he'd been in the shelter for 10 days, was very sick, and we took him straight to the animal hospital where he stayed for 16 days. He only weighed 5 1/2 pounds, even when we brought him home, and you could feel every bone in his spine and pelvic girdle. He's a sweet cat, and a friend figured out that he's British, which helped me to see that not only British, but he's royalty!

This is Sophie, who's been introduced before. She's the only girl kitty and is spoiled rotten! But she's my baby, and gets very jealous of Jiggs when he tries to lay on my lap. You can actually watch her squint her eyes at him, like she's planning to attack, which she usually does.

Isn't she gorgeous?!
