Its a cold A$$ day in T Town. My new job is going well with Blue Cross. I think I might get lucky to listen to the radio again at my DESK!! Woo HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! More MOney and closer to home. Its all Governement so we actually get our first Holiday of the year on Monday for MLK Day.
Good morning everyone. I just got home from work. Got into the office this morning and we have no heat....they figure it went out sometime last yesterday afternoon since the thermostat was reading 35 degrees. So I have a day off while they try to repair the heating system.
We're just now entering the deep freeze. Last night it went to -10; they say tonight will be even colder as the wind chill goes into the -20 range.
I called animal control this morning and reported my next door neighbors. They have 3 cats which have been outside all day and night with no shelter. They leave them out constantly no matter what kind of weather we have. Last night the poor things were sitting on my front porch meowing like crazy. I brought them inside for the night because I felt so sorry for them. They were so cold they shivered for a couple of hours. Their water bowl is solid ice; I don't know how long it's been like this, and their food bowl is empty; I checked when I got home this morning. The neighbors went to work this morning and left the cats' bowls like this outside. I fed them some tuna this morning (I've never owned a cat and I hope this won't make them sick.) Anyway, I know they stand a chance of being put to sleep once they go to animal control but I think it's more humane than letting them freeze to death this winter.
You did the right thing Ghost. The tuna will upset their stomachs a little bit, but it's better than no food at all.
Congrats on the new job Thump!
I ended up wearing my warm outfit today because I have a dinner to go to after work tonight.
Last night, Brian had to walk home from work because no one would give him a ride. We live about 5 minutes due north of where he works, they wouldn't even have to make a turn. The guys that would normally give him a ride weren't there. Which normally isn't a big deal, he can walk. But it's friggin' cold out there! So I told him that if he didn't have a ride home tonight that I'd leave work to take him home. It's too cold out there for him to be walking home.
This may be a long day. I just have a feeling. My morn started with hubby not turning off the alarm so assumed he was listening to the radio news before hitting the snooze but then he nagged me about getting up. I hadn't heard any of the snoozes! I was all in dream land. I forgot most of my dream but there was a guy that met Jensen's features but wasn't him and we were in some school that seemed overwhelming (like when you first go to high school) and there were activities in each room but you had to go through other rooms to get to the next room. One of the teachers was not happy about having to be there. Somewhere we split up and I felt as if I was being hunted by something and was hiding and trying to find "him". I called "him" and a whatever female leader was hunting me answered. I said "where do i have to meet you?" knowing that they had him. That is all I remember. It had a vampire feeling but I'm sure they could have found me without playing the game. The building had poor lighting.
