Crack of dawn

Hal has a habit of knocking crap over for fun or to get my attention. So when he wants me to get up in the morning he will go on my side table and try to knock the picture or ornaments or lamp over... I can't help but wake up which reinforces his behaviour. He also knocks things off the bathroom counter, like my hair products, deodorant, toothpaste, and so on. He does this randomly but he makes a point of being overly noisy when he wants me to turn on the tap for him. It's funny but it also really gets on my nerves. Particularly when I want to sleep in, such as this morning. He's such a frickin' brat. How do you discipline a cat? He's not like Clyde, I can't reason with him and he does not care enough about my opinion to change his ways. He's lucky he's cute and I am a compassionate person, and also a slob. If I were more like my Mom he would be in serious trouble.

Big snow

So the Prairie folk reading this may scoff, BUT we had a big snowfall/storm today. Big meaning a whole lot and all over. I just checked the Weather Network & the forecast was about 5 cm...it looks like a lot more but maybe that's just because it's fluffy. Or maybe it's really 20 cm and they just didn't measure it correctly.

This is my proof.

Anyways, it took about 45 -50 minutes to get to work this morning & then I left early and getting home took about an hour. The drive home was much worse because there was compact ice on the highway. The temperature is going up so I anticipate tomorrow to be horrible conditions, but maybe it will be all roses and rainbows or whatever. It was nice to get home early, I have only 3 more days of work before the big holiday. Woot woot x 1000! THREE MORE DAYS!!!

What cracks me up the most of the tap cat is that he or she keeps doing it over and over and over...and if a person made those sounds when they drank milk it would be considered rude. Cats are awesome!

I love my umbrella

Apparently there is an Umbrella self-defence workshop this Sunday in Van. Hilarious, but perhaps deadly...
