and now i will write about something you may or may not care about.
so i got the sewing machine out of the closet on friday night. about 2 seconds after i set it up on the table i remembered the reason i put it away in the first place. kitty!!
i haven't been able to get the bobbin to wind correctly so i did a serch for the manual. the sewing machine i have is a Morse 400. i'm not sure if it is named after the code (morse) or the centaur (man-horse= morse). anyway, so i looked at all of the diagrams for the other models and every machine is different than mine, and similar to each other. what the hell? i did find out something that i wasn't doing before, and i have yet to try it because the kitty is always chewing on the belt or sticking her paw some place that it shouldn't be. jeesh.
yesterday we went to peets to play scrabble. we sat outside and only played a half of a game because it was so cold. before that we went to PCC and got some bach's flower essance to calm kitty's over-enthusiasm. i gave it to her last night and for about 20 minutes she was going hog wild all over the place and i was afraid it wasn't going to work. then she went to sleep and slept all night. YEA!!!
other news: our building has wasted almost twice as much water as this time last year, and they need to check for leaks. they will be popping in "sometime next week" and we need to do something with the cat again. i am shitting my pants about it.
i hope we get our car fixed this week because i'm sick of being lazy.
