the random scats of a thoughtered soul in transit

technologically challenged... C3PO

so i am now on computer number three within three months. first computer committed suicide by jumping out of my hands and slamming onto a concrete floor; computer 2 had a cup of water jump into its keyboard and sizzle the non-sizzleable parts of the electronic world. so now i have computer 3, phase one. C3PO. hm.

in addition to a new (rebuilt) computer, i have a new kitty, pre-named nick, short for nickelodian. the name comes by way of a 9 year old, who deeply misses his kitty. i came to have nick in my harem of kitties (ok, so he's the second one, but who says he's the last? i may become the old cat woman...) due to a disgruntled landlord, who forced nick's family to find a new home for him and his two other kitty-buddies (another gal took the other two cats, so they were able to stay together).

nick meet suri. suri, you have a new little brother named nick. don't try to eat him. he may be 2, but he's bigger than you, and he bites harder. i found that out for her, don't think nick has tried to bite suri at all. lots of hissing ensued the first few weeks. now they can sit on the same bed for a few minutes without suri hissing at him (note: i said, "for a few minutes" and i mean that--suri does not like having a roommate at the moment!). but, for having a new kitty at home, the two of them are getting along fairly well. nick follows suri everywhere; suri usually doesn't chase nick back. she's starting to chase him, though, a little... it will take a few months. i will post some pics of nick and (maybe!) nick and suri soon so everyone may meet him--he's a little stinker and she's a drama queen. fits, doesn't it? :) wouldn't have it any other way...
