Everyone who actually knows me a little probably knows I'm really into my animals, especially horses and dogs. Now I've had my horse Solon for almost 5 years now, which is pretty cool. I have been pining for a dog though and would really love to have one. Given that I work a minimum of 40 hours a week, it wouldn't really be fair though. So while I still would love my very own doggie one day, I have settled on something else: a cat. I have been investigating and chances are I will find myself with a roommate (or two!) fairly soon. The general idea is to get one (or two!) from the pound, and probably one that's a little older already, but likes to cuddle up. I have been looking at some of the websites and for some reason most of them seem to be black or dark tiger, which I don't really like. Ideally, I'd have an orange one, but I suspect that if I go to the pound, I'll come home with any old mutt. Like it matters, really :-D
On an entirely different note. I took Thursday off, so was a little miffed that after I had just curled up in bed to go to sleep I got called by someone from work to inform me one of our branches had lost connectivity altogether. Grrr. Turned out there wasn't a lot I could do about it, but wait for our supplier to fix it, but it was well after 2 am before it got fixed. This more or less ruined the big plans I had for Thursday. The idea was to get a grip on the house, but it didn't really work out very well. It looks slightly more organised now, but there's still a lot of junk to trash and get rid off.
Somewhere in the afternoon, I kicked back and watched the new and kind of made a doubletake when an ex-boyfriend appeared in it. He was the first one, and I suspect my mother always viewed him as the perfect son in law. I'm not sure that's entirely true, but I've kept her in that illusion :) It's brought back memories though, and suddenly I feel older. Strange... I've never had that. I also noticed there'll be a reunion of my old school soon. I'm quite curious how that will go.
Rumours abound for 2007! Bowie might play Oxegen, T in the Park and/or Werchter. Then there's the U2 rumors. Sounds exciting. Exciting and expensive. Let's hope none of it is true :D
