Kitty!

My mom just brought home the sweetest gray tabby!

Total surprise. Mom was a work, and a customer found an abandoned cat. She couldn't take it home with her, though, because her son is allergic, so she asked if anybody in the pharmacy would be willing to take it. As it so happens, over Thanksgiving, Mom mentioned that she was thinking about getting me a cat for Christmas -- talk about fate! So of course she volunteered and took a short break to drop it off at home.

Oh, man, this cat is so unbelievably CUTE! I'm already in love. She's -- Mom was calling it a "he", but it looks female to me -- exploring the house right now, but she keeps coming back over to me every few minutes, wanting me to pet and kiss her. *melts into a puddle of goo* And I don't think she's stopped purring yet! I wish our digital camera worked... This cuteness demands to be shared.

Now I have to think of a name. When Mom first mentioned the possibility of a cat for Christmas, I thought Angel would be rather appropriate, and it certainly does suit her. (Except for when she stepped on the computer and accidentally turned it off when I was in the middle of writing this entry, scaring the crap out of me... *laughs* Oh, well, she's so cute, I forgive her!) But she also seems like a Daphne to me, for some reason (presuming she is a girl). Luna could also work. Hmm, I'll have to think about it.

In other news, I'm a bit annoyed because I ordered Christmas presents for my mother and brother-in-law from Amazon a couple of days ago, but it seems like my brother-in-law's gift is now on backorder and probably won't be delivered in time for Christmas. They said there was still one left in stock when I ordered it... I guess someone was just a little faster, though. *sigh* Now I don't know what to do. I guess print out a picture and stuff it inside a card, explaining that he'll get it eventually? (I don't want to cancel it and get him something else; it was hard enough shopping for him in the first place.)

Oh, and last week's Andrea Bocelli concert? A-MAZ-ING. Best birthday present EVER.

Googly-eyed kittens are proof that the universe isn't completely unfair. :-)
