The Halloween party is Friday. It's Wednesday, and I haven't even begun to think of a costume. I've been way more focused on the fact that a student here in my office gave me his old CD burner. I've been burning more CDs than a militant Baptist mother. I'm nervous right now because I had to lock the cats in the bathroom this morning. One of the landlady's henchmen called yesterday to announce that he was coming over to paint the ceiling over the steps that lead into my apartment. It really doesn't need a paint job, but hell, whatever, let 'em paint their asses off, for all I care. But I had to lock up the cats so they wouldn't end up running out the door or covered in latex paint (neither of those is a scenario I'm willing to deal with). I'm going to come home to find they've dumped the litter box and spread its contents all over the bathroom linoleum. Or gotten bored and started trying to flush each another down the toilet.
