I hate this month. Not because anything particularly terrible has happened - there's just something about it that feels heavy, every year.

I won't be sad to see the backside of it, though I know spring's still a bit away.

The only serious decision I'm making this week is whether or not I am finally getting another cat.

I have a white persian named Elsa, now. Most of my furniture is white, as is my carpet, but I'm thinking a black one. Maybe a dark brown tabby.

So.

If I manage to bite the bullet without making thirty three spread sheets:

Which color and what names should go into the possibility pool?

There are worse things to be. [he has 0 cats and no plans on getting any] Maybe temperament is something to look at? Aesthetic will only get you so far.


Right? I hate it. Then again, allergy season is right around the corner so you really can't win. So much bloody pollen.

I will certainly not be disregarding temperament.

I have been fortunate to have mostly escaped the worst environmental allergies but there's a downside to almost everything, I guess. This is one I can live with, though.

The rate things are going, allergies are the least of our problems. [he runs a hand through his hair]

You really sure you want to bring an animal into this environment?

[neverjedi]

Which, New York or my apartment, because if the former it's already in the environment and if the later I'm pretty confident I won't light it on fire.

I mean this. Us. Portals. Killer robots. Whatever the hell this Different thing is going to throw at us next.

Eh. I'm pretty content that won't burn the house down either, and if it does it'll burn down enough of New York to take most of us out, cats included, whether it lives in my house or not.

Suit yourself. [he does not approve which might be obvious.] Just make sure you have some kind of emergency plan.
