oh, but the other neighbors know somebody who really wants to take Urnge. they're traveling for the summer but will come get him when they return. so he's now just a foster child. soon it'll just be me and the doodle again, the way it's sposed to be.
and in non-cat news, i start my job on monday! all the paperwork has gone through and i'm Officially A Productive Member of Society. my boss emailed me to say that he's started a new study of the way the ants interact with their little "cows" (the insects they tend for the nectar they produce). this is gonna be so cool. i've always kind of wished i could go back in time to when Science was just naturalists observing things. and that's exactly what this job is. just lookin'. it's awesome. no molecular hooey at all.
i am now eating real food again too, after my horrid illness. that was the sickest i've ever been. yuk.
amy, if you're in nigeria already and i never got to talk to you before you left i'm gonna punch a wall. i'm sorry i had to drop off the face of the planet like that. i miss everyone terribly and have been looking at a lot of old pix of all the fun we've had. july 4 in cape cod. mississippi beach. pirate party. beach trip NC. fake-hurricane ivan. guilty pleasures. god, i miss you all so @%$&ing much! so i'm starting to plan a return visit for my birthday in october. everybody tell me when/if you're going to be around, because i need a good solid dose of Mah Peeps. you know who you are.
oh, and if anyone's planning on getting married any time soon (emily), let me know a timeframe, cause that could change everything....
happy friday everybody!

um, i am not yet in sand jigger land...have you heard about these unbelievably DISGUSTING bugs that LAY EGGS into your skil and then turn into boils and then you bust the boils and roll the worms out of your BODY WITH A PENCIL!
oh no you've been reading. you've actually got 2 bugs rolled into one. there's bot flies, who lay eggs in your skin and then you get a knot that busts open and they fly out when they're grown. the other one is the guinea worm. you get it from drinking nasty water, and it goes to yr foot and you have to roll it on the pencil -- that's where the caduceus symbol comes from. bottled water and cover yrself, baby.
