It has been awhile...

It has been a long time since I had anything to blog about, which was pretty aimless in itself. Of course I'm going to come up with about the same quality of material. A funny story, but you probably had to be there to laugh so hard you start to cry. My sister is on her spring break and she has been staying at my house. Today we decided to "get crafty" and attempt to make our Mother her upcoming birthday present. This included paint of various colors. As I am painting away, my pretty calico cat decided to hop up onto the table and land right in the middle of my hot pink paint. Of course this freaked her out, and she bolted. Running around the house as we are chasing her, leaving pretty hot pink paw prints all over the house. After catching her, we had no other choice but to try and wash her foot off in water. If you don't know already, cats don't like water. For the most part the paint is off her, but the paint is still all over my carpet. It looks awful, and I haven't the slightest idea how to get it out. The whole thing is still pretty funny.

I also just finished watching the new release, Into the Wild. It is about a young man who follows his dream of living out in the woods of Alaska. Awesome movie and highly recommended, even though it is a bit lengthy. It does push me even more to follow my dream of hiking the entire Appalachian Trail. Of course he does die at the end....

Well, off to bed. I have an early morning meeting at the Woman's Shelter. Something new that I am volunteering at to help coordinate the care of physically and sexually abused woman who come into the ER. I think it will be quite rewarding.
