Soup and Ginger Ale

Today we I got up I noticed that Kit was still in bed. I thought the silly kat had overslept because yesterday was a day off from school and she had stayed up rather late. I could hear her moaning from beneath the covers and she said she was sick. I could tell right away from the way she looked that she was not feeling good so I had Little Kat bring her a ginger ale to help settle her stomach. I hope she feels better. We will get her some soup later when she is feeling a little stronger because that always seems to do the trick.

LOOK AT ME!

hey go to Little Kat's blog now

Persevere

I need a new project at work. So I talked with my manager Sharri. She had Eric send me an email. His email said to contact Miki. I sent an email to Miki. An automatic reply came back saying I should contact Andrea. An email to Andrea went unanswered. I emailed Eric back, asking for some help. He did not reply either.

Ok. So I waited a while. Then I called Eric and left him a phone message. I also emailed him again. He gave me Miki’s phone number. I called her up. Her voice mail told me to call Carmen. I did. Carmen told me I needed to speak with Andrea. I asked her for Andrea’s phone number. Carmen tried to look it up. But she said Andrea’s phone number was not listed.

I told Carmen I really needed to speak with Andrea. Carmen told me to hold on. She went and tracked down Andrea. And then I got her phone number. Finally I got in touch with Andrea. She told me to give her some information, and she would try to get me a project. We had some more communication. Right now I am waiting to hear back. If I don’t, you know I’m going to be calling Andrea soon.

The moral of this story is to never give up. At many points I could have given up and failed. But that would have only hurt me. I had to keep pressing on. Maybe sometimes people get busy and forget about you. That’s why you have to keep on top of the communications. Finally, I must mentioned that some of the above names may have been changed to protect the innocents cats in my company. Or maybe not.

Cat Names

I have been trying to get Little Kat to start blogging but he is nervous because he is still learning how to spell. I told him it does not really matter if everything is spelled correctly on a blog but it is important to get your thoughts and ideas down. He did say he gets a little confused because he always calls me "mama" so I decided to change my name to "Mama". I guess you can call me "Mama" too.

Nobody Listening

I got word from my team leader that the big boss wanted to have a conference call. All the cats on my team were to call in to the same phone number. That way we could all hear what the big boss had to say. This way supposed to be an important discussion. We were to find out what our next assignments on the team were.

The time came for the meeting. I dialed in. The conference had not started. I stayed on hold. I waited and waited. After a while I thought something was wrong. I called my team leader with my cell phone. He said he thought we were supposed to call in. I called the big boss directly. No answer. I left him a voice message saying we were waiting for him on the conference line.

In the end, the system automatically disconnected me from the conference call. The call never started. Oh well. That was probably going to be a long discussion anyway. With the extra free time, I decided to browse the web. Go me.

Rock Star Cat

Black Cat here. Sorry I have not posted in a while. I have been busy with work. Went out of town for a couple days. Had to do some training with my company. The good news is that they gave me a hotel.

Well the hotel was ok. It was close to the place I went to train. The bed was too soft. They had a big screen TV. I watched some Family Guy episodes late at night.

In other news, I got my company to buy me some business cards. At first they did not want to let me have the title of "Rock Star" on my cards. I had to talk them into it. Finally they agreed. I just got the cards in the mail today. Do you want one?

Happy Birthday Little Kat!!!

Today Little Kat celebrated his birthday. His day started with the traditional singing of "Happy Birthday" and then he wanted to open his presents first thing this morning. After school, we picked up his best friend and they played until dinner time. We all went to dinner and the day ended with a lot more playing. I guess cleaning up will happen tomorrow.
