October 3, 2008 -Of Kittens, a Dog, and a Laser Pointer-

And another leaf picture. I'm going picture taking tomorrow so I'll have some fun new stuff to put up that isn't so repetitive.
Picked up another Austen fragment, Sanditon this time, finished by an anonymous woman. Well, she's true to the Austen style in that much at least, I just hope she doesn't disappoint as much as the last one did.
Things are starting to look like I'm getting my own apartment again. I've applied for a job in Reedsburg that pays $11.35 an hour, and there's apartments right across the street that happen to be leasing. If I got the job we're moving in there.
Today was my boyfriend's day off, so we went to Robot World. I hadn't been there since I was about six, I had so much fun! They have an automatic lawn mower that just runs around all the time mowing the grass, it's so little and fun looking, it even refuels itself. At the gift shop we bought a cheap little laser pointer and took it over to my boyfriend's sister's house to play with the little kittens. They were adorable but didn't get into it very much, we had a lot of fun with the dog though. They have a great beast of a dog, German Shepard, Husky, and something else I can't quite discern that makes its head huge and blocky. He loved the pointer and galumphed after it for a good half hour, trying to pounce on it like a gargantuan fox.
FACT:
Small children are very good at scaring little animals, particularly when driving a Barbie jeep that for some unknown reason has a police siren and lights. This causes kittens to hide in small nooks and not come out even when you shine a laser pointer.
