Thursday Kitteh Blog (01/14/2010)

This has just been one of those weeks that I can't wait until it's over. And that's not just because I'll be on a boat next week, at which time, the lovely and talented Lindsay Jean will be guest blogging once again.

I'm not going to bore you with the details of my week, let it suffice to say that it hit a low of crappiness yesterday when, on her 22nd birthday no less, Amanda lost her job. She'll be okay, but it was and continues to be really tough on her. Fortunately, before that happened, there was cake.

The cake was made by me on Monday in anticipation of the birthday. Apparently Amanda photographed it after she put the sprinkles on (she likes the sprinkles) because I did not take this picture, but I like it, so what the heck.

Meanwhile, this evening, both Amanda and Katie (Amanda's friend who's staying with us right now) have gone out for a while. I finished a pretty brutal 10-hour workday, and walked out in the living room to watch some TV and found this.

This is what the kittehs do when a person leaves the house. How long they wait by the door is a measure of how much they love the person who left. Since Amanda was the last one out this evening, I imagine they'll be there for a little while.
