Left Behind

Momoko and Little Kat took it easy yesterday. So they have to run their errands today. Kit Kat came home late yesterday from school and tried to arrange some activities today with her friends. Unfortunately she needed a ride to all the places she wanted to go. Momoko was busy. That means I am driving Kit Kat around today.

Kit Kat's friends have their driver's licenses. So they just drive their cars to wherever they want to go. Kit Kat does not have her license yet. It would be a whole lot easier if she did. I am hoping that will motivate her to step and pass her driver's license test. They are tough to pass in our state. I don't know how these other girls made it.

I usually sleep in late on Saturdays. Today I had to set an alarm to be up in time to drive Kit Kat to Target, the girls' first meeting place. We got there 5 minutes after the scheduled meeting time. I thought we would see Kit Kat friends. Kit Kat called one of them up. She was in the next aisle over. As I left Kit Kat with her friend, I saw another of Kit Kat's friends waling in. All set.

College Time

Kit Kat's school left a message on our answering machine. It said that tonight is the college fair at her school. Kit Kat said that over 50 colleges are attending. For some reason, Kit Kat is not interested in researching colleges. So she planned to skip the event. Luckily Momoko is making her go.

Two of Kit Kat's friends from school are going to the college fair with her. That should give her some good support. I had to stay home with Little Kat. We might be planting a bamboo tree tonight. However I did some role playing with Kit Kat. I started out as the high school student, and she played the college representative. Then we switched roles. Good luck Kit Kat.

Lazy Weekend

We made it to the holiday weekend. The kids scheduled up a bunch of activities themselves. Kit Kat went out swimming with her friends late last night. I went out to eat with a college buddy. Today Kit Kat and Little Kat are about to go shopping with some friends.

Little Kat was watching some TV. His friend was late to pick him up for shopping. So Little Kat called him up. Looks like Little Kat was too lazy to hold his cell phone while he called his friend. So Little Kat placed the phone on the couch, and laid his head down on the phone.

Next Little Kat lost the laziness. He pulled out the Wii Fit and did a bike riding exercise. Little Kat's friend called him back. Did Little Kat stop his game? No way. He picked up the phone, kept bicycling, and talked with his friend. Amazing.

My bro is about to come over and watch some movies with me today. They are from Netflix. But they seem to be B movies. I don't really care. No work on Monday. Yes.

Happy Birthday Dad

I got off work on time again today. Went to visit my dad and wish him a happy birthday. I got him a picture book called Cars of the 1940s. Now I don't think dad is old enough to have had a car from the 1940s. But he does remember them. I think one of my uncles had a 1940s car. And he let dad drive it all the time.

Momoko had told me that Little Kat was coming home from his friend's house today. So I hurried home after visiting my dad. Strangely enough, I found nobody at home. There were a lot of messages on the answering machine for me though. Momoko and the kids went to her school to work on her classroom. They are staying late. That means I need to fend for myself at dinner time. I started out with a nap. Then I decided to get some Dominos carryout. They had a special where you could add cheesy bread and a 2 liter drink for five bucks. I'm in.

Two Rolls

Kit Kat has a project due this weekend. She needed to do a video with her friends. So her friends were going to come over our house to work on it. She called up their friends. They said they would walk over to her house.

I was impressed because her friends live a few miles from our house. When they got here, I took Momoko and Little Kat out to eat. This was to get us out of their hair. We went to this restaurant that specializes in appetizers.

Momoko got brave and ordered Vietnamese shrimp spring rolls. How bad could it be? The things came out looking like jellyfish. And they were served chilled. Yikes. I took a shrimp or two out and ate them with spicy sauce. Only Momoko ate a whole spring roll. Little Kat ate half of one. Yuck.

On the way home, we drove straight out of the shopping center. There was a car blocking traffic on the opposite side, trying to make a left turn against us. It was a new Rolls Royce! I have only seen one of these in person one other time in my life. The thing costs something like $400,000 without options. License plate was a vanity one, saying "JEZEUS". I wonder what that was about.

Driving and More Driving

I tried to wake Momoko up at 10:00am this morning. No luck. Then I tried again at 10:30am. Still no pulse. At 11:00am I decided to try waking Kit Kat. She usually responds to me. It took a while but Kit Kat came out of her room.

Little Kat loves Saturday mornings. He gets up early while the family is asleep. Then he watches TV and whole knows what else downstairs. Kit Kat and I went driving and left Little Kat alone. At least we got him to start some laundry.

Kit Kat drove me to Home Depot. The weather is nice. Everybody was at the store. We parked, switched positions, and decided to go home without going into the store. Kit Kat can drive in traffic now.

Once home I planned to battle the dandelions in the yard. However Kit Kat needed to study with her friends. So I let her drive my car over to her friend's house. Then I drove back home alone. By then it was too late to pull dandelions. I had company over this afternoon. Before company came, I got eBay to restore my account. Then I placed a bid for a texting cell phone. Little Kat are you reading this???

Late For School

Early this morning, I heard Kit Kat talking on her phone upstairs. This was disturbing as I was still asleep. But the phone conversation woke me a bit. Then Kit Kat knocked on my bedroom door. She overslept and needed a ride to school.

What happened was that Kit Kat's friend noticed Kit Kat missed the bus and called her up. Good thing the friend did this. That call was the wake up call for Kit Kat. She either forgot to set her alarm, or slept through it.

I got ready as soon as I could. We hit a little traffic on the ride to school. However Kit Kat was still a few minutes late to first period. I on the other hand was very early for work. It is good to keep the coworkers guessing about my arrival time.

Busy Weekend

This weekend is turning out to be a busy one. Momoko has requested that the family go see The Vampire's Assistant at the movies theater tomorrow. Hopefully the cats will have their work done so we can do this.

Then Kit Kat has a pre-Halloween party to go to. She is inviting her friends to come with her to the party. On Saturday, both Little Kat and Kit Kat are planning to go to friends' houses for Halloween. I like this plan. That means I don't have to take anybody trick or treating.

My own brother is coming over on Halloween to watch movies with me. Unfortunately I think I have some B movie DVDs planned for us.

Homecoming Details

Kit Kat has already provided some details on her homecoming dance. But I will fill in some more details. I drove Kit Kat to her dance. When we got there she called up her date who was supposed to meet us there. He answered the phone and said he thought the dance was the next day. Me and Kit Kat sat in the car waiting for the guy.

I guess Kit Kat's friends were expecting her at the dance. They kept calling her on her phone as we waited for her date. After dropping off Kit Kat, I went home briefly. Then I turned around and went back to pick her up. The parking lot was jammed. Kit Kat was texting and calling me wondering where I was at. I pulled over and walked to where she was.

Kit Kat and I drove back home. But we first stopped off at Taco Bell to get Momoko a little "snack". That's funny. I did not know that cats enjoyed tacos. We ended up missing the homecoming game due to sickness in the family, cold weather, and pouring rain. I am still hoping we see one of Kit Kat's high school football games.

Truck Noises

I went to lunch today at a pizza joint. Strangely enough I ordered a meal with all you can eat soup. On the drive back to work, a truck comes up behind me. Then he tries to pass me on the left. He is just not going fast enough. So he drives next to me. It was disturbing. The truck was making all kinds of hissing and grinding noises. I was glad when the trucker pulled off into an exit.

After work, I came home. Little Kat and his friend popped out when I was getting out of my car. They seem to be playing some Pokemon on something. Little Kat's friend told me that as soon as she got home from school, Little Kat knocked on her door. She always seems to make time for Little Kat. I blame this distraction for dinner being late (Little Kat cooked). Luckily the dinner was very delicious.

Late Arrival

Kit Kat planned to go shopping with her friends this weekend. Normally Momoko drives Kit Kat to the mall. But Momoko felt like she was getting sick. She went to the clinic. Thus I had to drive Kit Kat.

Momoko warned me that Kit Kat's friends arrive fashionably late sometimes. We did not want to be the first one's at the mall. So I planned our departure so that we would arrive "10 minutes late".

On the ride over, Kit Kat got a phone call from her friends. They were wondering where she was. She said she was running late but was on the way. As we pulled up, I saw all of Kit Kat's friends there. I guess they were anxious to get their shop on. Maybe arriving late is just for parties. Timing is hard to figure out with these high school cats.

Mamma Kat Sick

Normally Mamma Kat gets us breakfast on the weekends. However she is sick. Then we found out that we had run out of medicine this morning. So I made the trek out to Walmart to pick up some essentials.

Kit Kat's friend visited us today. She is staying the night. When she arrived, I found out what she likes to eat. Then Little Kat and I went out to pick up some Chinese food for lunch. It was delicious.

My bro cat came over this afternoon like he does every Saturday to watch movies with me. We had a full house here. It is late now. Kit Kat and her friend are doing a movie marathon in the basement. I hope Little Kat is in bed.

Little Kats

Tonight Little Kat went to visit one of his kat friends. He is going to spend the night there. Kitty Kat and Kit Kat were off doing some work. So I came home to an empty house today.

Luckily I knew nobody would be home. And so I picked up a little cat treat for myself. Yay. Now I am listening to some music. Treat tasted pretty good.

What is that? I hear some noise outside. Maybe Kitty and Kit are home. I had better go then.

Cat Talk

Me and some of the other cats at work were supposed to have a talk today. We were going to tell other cats what we have been doing. It has been set up for a long time. So I got up very early this morning.

Although I hate water, I cleaned myself up before the talk. I found it strange that I was the only cat who showed up at first. Then a lot of other cats who wanted to hear us showed up to. I had to start talking without any of my cat friends from work. What gives?

It seems all the other cats got stuck somewhere while trying to come to our meeting place. Most of them showed up by the time the talk was over. But by then it was too late. I had to do all the talking. Ouch. Come on guys. Back up your cat bro.
