Nemasu ga sukides (ne?)

To get into the American Thanksgiving spirit, I'm thankful that it's Friday. I did not want to get out of bed this morning, but Ben and I made me. I dreamed last night of moving into a huge apartment under a bitchy Oriental landlady, being ridiculed for being female in a predominantly-male computer class, and owning a pet pink cat. Now, if the last isn't not a sexual metaphor, I don't know what is. I wound up crying about it because it wasn't my cat. It astounds me how deeply I still miss my cat.

I'll lurk about here on campus until about two-thirty. I'm meeting Dave in the Head Hall lab to borrow his CS notes, then I have to finish up the assignment. Boo. I've got an excellent head start on it, though, so I easily ought to be able to finish it up in an hour or less as soon as I collect the notes I missed.

Then, Willie doesn't know it yet, but he is going to help me call the remainder of the apartments on our list. There is one in particular I'm interested in looking at. Three bedrooms on two levels for $550 plus utilities, though, likely means it's a dump. It's also a bit further from campus than I would prefer, but I could take a morning bus on cold and/or lazy days.

I'm romanizing my final Japanese writing assignment in another window. It looks really silly, especially because Spell-Check is underlining every single word (all but 'New Brunswick,' 'The Matrix,' and 'sore' [so-rhey]).

Yikes; more time has passed than I realized. I need to get to English class soon.

Good luck looking at the apartments!
Don't forget to check the water pressure in all the faucets + bring something to plug into the outlets to make sure they work.
Our house has a bunch of wonky outlets where only the bottom part works. Bah.

Outlets aren't a huge deal to me. My dad's an electrician.

Thanks for the tips, though. I'll be sure to pay attention.

When I was little, I had a cat named Skippy, he was pure whit shorthaired with one blue eye and one green eye. He was my best friend. He died of leukemia. Our furnace room in the basement was his room, we would put him in there at night, and he had his bed, his food and his litter pan. He loved it.
After he died, for months afterwards I would go downstairs and sit outside of Skippy's room and cry because I couldn't bring myself to go inside.
Pets really are just like family. It takes a long time to get over the death of a pet.
