13:56: dropping by the animal shelter yesterday cheered me up. i woke up this morning to the news that my application for the adoption of a cat had been approved. i know it's a lot of responsibility, but i really need a focus these days. i'd probably need that cat more than it would need me. i saw some good looking cats among the adults. when i entered the cage, they all rushed to me, then when curiosity faded, they went about their usual business. there was a gorgeous orange and white one, but it was a bully. a lot of the others were nice, too, but they didn't really respond well to me. one of the female ginger ones was pretty cute. it just lay there, lazily blinking as i stroked her. the killer, though, was that kitten at the office where i first came in. as i filled out my adoption application form, it jumped to my lap, as if curious to see what i was writing down. i set it back down on the floor, but it jumped to me again, the little cutie. perhaps if it's still around when i go back, i'll get that one.
