Saturday - Totally beat. Laid around, didn't do much at all.
Riley
seems better, but didn't have a BM all day, so I'll get him some Colace
or something tomorrow if he doesn't have one overnight - and I could
hear him mewling with effort so I'm thinking not - and I'll call the
Vet on Monday.
Went over to R&S's, had home made pizza, watched Argo (obviously meant to be an Affleck vehicle, show stolen by Alan Arkin though), and took the kitten home again.

Friday
- OTR. Down to Ventura for the day. We did an inspection, of sorts, in
Saticoy. We are not inspectors for this job, and are not the PM or CM,
but were asked to take a look at how well the contractor was complying
with the job requirements. After that we went back to the office and
did some other stuff.
Among
which was putting RAM into the three office laptops, 2GB up from 1GB,
which should really help in the case of the old GIS laptop.
The
Santa Ana's were blowing - it was nasty. About 89F in Saticoy, with
30mph winds blowing sand everywhere. I even started getting a nosebleed
again. Yuck.
In the mid evening I went to dinner with a friend,
and then, because I couldn't find my boat keys, drove back to
Lancaster, arriving about 1am. Gahhh.
Suzy is good for about an hour of frenetic activity, then passes out, preferably on a human's lap.

Thursday
- Running around, doing various chores.
I
took the kitten back over to R&S's place. She's become a good
traveler in the car (in her cat carrier) and is at home at their house
now.
Off to Ventura in the early am hours.

Wednesday
- Still tired. Not sure what's with that.
I
did go over in the early evening and pick up the kitten. She's grown,
and is a lot more active and aggressive. In fact she's the one hissing
at Riley, rather than the other way around. Since she's only about a
pound and a half I have to keep a good eye on her and him. So far he
has batted at her a couple of times, with claws sheathed, and she runs
away and ignores him for a bit.
Riley investigating one of Suzy's re-arrivals....
Dave
called and I probably have to be back in Ventura for some inspection on
Friday morning. I'll probably head down in the evening, so as to be
ready in the morning.
Which means Suzy is back to Roger & Sheryl's tomorrow night.
Roger is NASA, so he's been furloughed and has a lot of time to play with the kitten.
Tuesday 1 October2013
Tuesday
- Back in town. Pretty darn tired though.
Since the week modulo 10 is zero I need to update the "books read" list. Not many. Been busy.
Monday - Kind of a long day. Big changes in the project PRD has been advising the county on.
Too
tired to head home in the evening, so I stayed on the boat. Reasonably
quiet - not as quiet as I expected for a Monday evening - but the two
or three sets of people on nearby boats were OK. I tend to get prickly
about disturbances, but I try to remind myself that laughter and some
quiet music isn't a huge imposition...
Sunday 29 September2013
Sunday
- A quiet morning, not much going on. Playing with the spastic kitten....
I have to leave for Ventura at noon, urgent call from Dave, so I'm out
of here for a few days, again. The kitten is back to Roger and
Sheryl's....
