New Cat!

I can't find the motivation to finish my project that is due tomorrow. Sigh. Procrastination.
However, I do want to say that I got a new cat. I now have 2 lovely cats. The older cat is my ragdoll, Katrina. She is the best, if somewhat moody. Now she's even moodier because I brought in a little BeBe. BeBe is an exotic short haired Persian. Basically, she has the funny squishy face without the long fur. She is black and white striped with little white legs. I'm hoping that Katrina will get over her moodiness and accept BeBe. It's for her own good! I thought she could use a playmate. So, we shall see. I know it might take a while. Of course, I am being extra kind to Katrina. I love my cats!

I haven't blogged in a long time because...

I've been too busy actually doing things! Yes, I admit, I blog when I'm bored.
And this summer, I have been super busy with my online Master's degree program. Quite frankly, when you are required to do 10-15 hours of work a week online, including readings, discussion postings, and projects, you are not going to want to blog for another hour or so "just for fun." I am not at work, so I don't have to be on the computer if I don't want to.
Aside from my program, I have been traveling all over the Midwest-the Ozarks in Missouri and jet-skiing, camping in Michigan, going to the beach in Chicago and visiting the Shedd aquarium (I haven't been there in over 10 years!)
Running a lot, hanging out with my Champaign friends and Jim, eating ice cream, and playing with my new Wii. So really, I'm just kinda sick of the whole blog scene and I have little interest in talking about my daily activities online. I don't think people want to read about them anyway. I am sure that I will continue updating this more regularly when school starts again, but for now, I am enjoying my vacation and using the computer as little as possible...except to look at cats (I'm thinking of getting another one), shop on ebay, and make various online purchases. teehee.
