Sigh… we need to find Meg Meg a new home. Coz Sis cannot manage with 3 cats AND a new baby. Plus she can only take 2 of them when she moves.

Sigh

I’ve always felt a special bond with Meg. Maybe coz when we first found her as a stray, I was the one who diligently, every morning and night for about a week or so, went to look for her to give her her medication to treat her severe jaundice. In a way, I feel like I’d nursed her back to health and feel totally responsible for her.

Then when Sis moved out, I convinced her to take her along with the other 2 stray furballs that were around our place here. Then there were the 3 of them.

Meg is a strange cat, this one. She’s not your typical cat. Sis is convinced she’s somewhat abnormal in some strange way coz she’s v-e-r-y s–l–o–w for a cat. She has trouble getting up and down high places so she usually just stays on the floor or the highest she goes is on the bed. And she just loves climbing onto your lap or your chest when you’re sleeping. She has a habit of puking, err, anywhere… but we’ve taken her for checks and the vet says she’s perfectly normal.

I just love that I can pick her up and carry her for however long I want and she just lies there, like a doll. Sooooo adorable!

Meg is more suited in a single-cat household coz she’s very solitary and she doesn’t mix with the other 2 furballs that she’s living with. She tolerates them, no catfights or anything like that. But I think she would prefer to be the queen of the house, getting all the attention from her people.

So please, if you know of anyone who loves cats and is looking to adopt, please drop a note. Do understand that any potential owners will need to go through a thorough check before we release dear Meg. We definitely do not want her to end up in the streets again after all she’s been through.

*Update*

Ok, tried changing the color but discovered that it takes too much work. So I’m just gonna leave it as it is. Until I get tired of it and change the entire template altogether

***** 

So how do you like my new theme?

I think it’s a bit dull, the color and all. Haven’t tried changing it yet. But I do like the sidebar. The theme comes with a widget that allows me to customize it somewhat to the way I want it to be. Yes, and I’ve just recently discovered what a widget is. I think.

Can you tell that I’m just freaking bored out of my mind???

Everyone seems to be on leave coz no one is getting their action items done!

Blargh!

How do you know that s/he is the person you want to spend the rest of your life with?

Our PM’s announcement of his upcoming marriage this weekend brought this thought to my head. Not that I’ve never thought about it before but I’ve never figured it out so sooner or later, it would be banished into some dark corner of my mind.

About a year and a half after his first wife’s death, and about half a year being in love with his new love. A little fast, I think… but that’s just my opinion. Love works differently for different people, no?

So how DO you know?

Is it that certain level of comfort that you feel with him/her? Or the warm, fuzzy feeling that you get whenever you’re with him/her?

How does one decide to get hitched/involved in a long-term relationship anyway? Biological clock ticking? Reached a certain age/stature in society? The need for companionship? How do you integrate your differences and ensure harmony? How do you ensure that you don’t get on each others’ nerves until you feel like strangling the other? How do you integrate your values and ensure that they don’t contribute to frustrations later on when someone decides that his/her values has changed? How do you know that you’re getting married because you want to and not because, subconsciously, it is expected of you to? To get married. Have children. Raise a family. Get a house. Get a family pet. Two cars. Why do you decide to have children? Because you like kids? Because you want to carry on your family name? Because it’s expected of you? Ineffective family planning? What happened 10 years down the road? Why did you go your separate ways? What happened to that couple who were so smitten with each other on their wedding day? Ok, I think I’m digressing.

So many questions, no answers. So many marriages and new relationships, just as many divorces and separations.

Honestly, I don’t know how people decide to get hitched or not to get hitched. Sometimes, I tend to think it’s due to the hormonal changes or emotional high that someone gets when one is proposing/being proposed to.

Yep, that’s me, the cynic. That hopeless romantic in me has long flown out the window.

Or maybe it’s that time of the month.

Sometimes, the feelings of frustration, confusion, guilt, and other pent-up emotions make me want to scream my lungs out or hit my head against the wall until I pass out.

No, I’m not that dramatic in real life… but sometimes, I just have too many things going on in my head that I just cannot take it. It’s like my mind’s running too fast for me to catch up. Is that even possible?

Share them with someone? Hmm… I’m not really the sharing type, especially about personal matters. Or something in which I need to make a decision. I don’t know. I’m not a good communicator. I prefer to dwell on things myself. Mainly coz my view is, no one can help me solve my problems or work out my issues except myself.

Oh boy, what an enthusiastic entry leading up to the weekend. Har har *chuckling sarcastically to self*

Wow, setting up this site is so fun! So many different things to play with! But so time-consuming Still trying to find the perfect theme to use. So far, none has attracted me “that”way… sigh… I liked the earlier butterfly one but it was too tedious to customize. This is the one I’ve got so far… still not satisfied.. but it’s time to hit the showers, then bed. I’ve been at it for too long tonite! Bleargh… *rubbing eyes*
