Miscommunication

Earlier today I asked Kit Kat what her plans for the day were. She said she needed to shop for shoes with her friends. She also planned to split our big gerbil cage into two to prevent the young gerbils from fighting. She cleaned the house up a bit. That was the last I saw of her.

My bro came over and we started watching movie Hugo. I thought I saw Kit Kat leave the house out of the corner of my eye. Later the doorbell rang in the middle of our movie. I thought it might be the neighbors telling us they got our mail or something. Instead it was Kit Kat's friend. I invited her in. We went over and looked outside. Kit Kat's car was gone.

I called up Kit Kat on her cell phone. Luckily she picked up. I let Kit Kat's friend talk with her. Apparently Kit Kat thought her friend was meeting her at the store. Luckily Kit Kat's friend had a car to drive this weekend. So she left our house to meet Kit Kat at the shopping center. What a weird situation.

House Building

Today Momoko and Kit Kat went to Momoko's school to get ready for the start next week. Momoko also went to straighten out Little Kat's middle school issue. He was still not sure which school he will be attending this year.

Little Kat and I took the truck to the store. We spied on some wood for Little Kat to build his mini house in the back yard. He had some real expensive ideas.

We looked at home sheds for sale at the store as well. Little Kat studied their construction to help figure out how to build his own house.

The Search For Planet Aid

While Momoko was away on her conference, she had the cats find out which clothes no longer fit. This resulted in a couple big trash bags full of clothes we could give away.

Momoko planned to put the clothes in a Planet Aid container by Walmart. But when she got to the store, the three containers had disappeared. Momoko asked me whether I knew where any other Planet Aid drop offs where. I directed her to one in the other direction.

Then Momoko needed some help. Little Kat and I went with her to drop off the clothes. On the way back home, Little Kat told us he thought there was a drop off really close to our house. We passed it on the way home. Doh! At least the clothes are going to a good cause. Now we know where the close drop off is located.

Answering Machine Blues

Our home answering machine had degraded. It still said hello when people called, and recorded the messages. However the messages would be hard to understand. Time for a new machine.

Mamma Kat went to the store. They only have one brand of machine in any given store. Doesn't anybody use good old answering machines any more?

Well I finally hooked up the new machine that Mamma Kat got us. It was tough because the phone jack is behind a heavy desk that has even heavier objects on top of it. But the mission has been accomplished. Give us a call at the home number.

Grocery Shopping

Mamma Kat went to school. The kids were very quiet. I took a look around. The kitchen was a mess. So I had Little Kat get to work on it. He came back later and told me we ran out of dishwasher detergent. We both looked around, and decided he was right.

Little Kat and I made a list of high priority items we needed from the store. Toilet paper was very high on the list. Then we got in my truck (Little Kat insisted we take the truck), and drove to WalMart. I was surprised that they had everything we needed.

I even picked up some grass seed while shopping. Little Kat lobbied for some Beef flavored Ramen noodle. Seemed like a fair request. We bought a huge box of them.

A Flat Tire

Last night, Kitty Kat told me she had a flat tire on her car. So I woke her up this morning. And we drove to the tire store. Her tire still had enough air to make it there. We talked to the tire man. It was going to cost some big bucks. But we had to get it fixed.

After dropping off Kitty's car, we drove down the road. We picked up a little Chinese food. Hey. Cats can eat Chinese food too. It was quite delicious. No reason to go hunting if you can buy lunch.

My little bro cat visited me this afternoon. We watched a movie. Then me, my little bro cat, and Kitty went back to the tire shop. Kitty got her car back. The new tire looks good. Watch out. Cats are out on the road now. Unstoppable.
