    P cat was sat on my lap last night, purring loudly and dribbling on my leg. If I dared stop stroking him he was head-butting me till I started again. Every so often he'd look up and stare right at me for a while. I was telling him how beautiful he is and how much I love him (his favourite story :))

    There's just no comparison between a much-loved animal and a person you barely see/know. Just because they're not a person doesn't mean they're not important - it's another soul that has connected with yours and that you love, that's all that matters.

    Sometimes I worry that DA dog prefered his old family so I tell him they didn't love him as much as I do :rotfl:

  • Awww I miss having a pet. If I am not evicted by the new landlord I may ask if I can have another hamster. Either that or spend a fortune and get one of those lovely robotic pets that Pyxis linked to, one of those would be perfect for me.

    elloooooo.......thanks for the thoughts guys, new job was fine, surprisingly so actually. Only a few days in and have so far been in office so may change when I get out on site, but they were very friendly and welcoming and like minions, so a good start! V.tired after long days and poor sleep, but all in all, my first days as an astronaut were perfectly acceptable and many of those stupid things I was worrying about before hand were silly. Even tho its an hour and a half drive to the office and then back again - I quite enjoy listening to my audiobooks so don't mind too much.
    big squishes to all for the pooey weeks some people are having.

    lmao - no they like minions, not are like minions! sniggering.
    No news from the local role but I would not expect to hear anything immediately - will give it a month before I assume it is a no go.
