Oh my, oh my. I went looking at the Animal Shelter website to see about volunteer info, and it turns out they are moving into a new space as I type. That's nice. I don't know if I can actually volunteer, because now its even harder for me to get there without a car, and the hubinator has the car during the day. Pewp.
And the oh my oh my part? I really would like to bring this kitty into my home. Oh my oh my do I. I have a soft spot for Siamese mixes about the size of Mount Everest. My wee little apartment can barely accommodate my big orange fellows and us, so I think this beauty is going to have to find a different home. Aaargh. Full of want. I even have a name for her, if her personality was compatible with it. Lucretia (Lulu, or Little L for nicknames). After Lucretia Borgia and the Sisters of Mercy song. It would be a nice contrast to Marx and Engels (whose names are also related to a Sisters song).
I also am full of wanting to start fencing again and to find a pool for swimming. I need some change in my world and I am longing for varied exercise. But that is expensive. Buying new running shoes (more wanting!) is even pushing things at the moment. I need more work, clearly. Pulling together equipment for my own lab set up is really straining the budget though, and those overhead costs are going to eat any money I make at lab work for a while. I'm going to be looking for a job to supplement my independent work when I get back from France. If I can find one, I think it'll help all around.
