I was hanging out with my brother and his girlfriend most of the weekend. It was really fun! I'm kinda glad I'm getting to know her better because it's they've been together so long and all I really knew about her was that she had a lot of pets (six cats, three guinea pigs and a horse, I think).

But now I know she's a lot of fun to be with. We had a kinda sleepover party on Saturday night, but we tried to minus the sleep. XD It didn't work. Steph was out after Advent Children, I crawled onto the sofa and passed out about 6:00am and Adam was sleeping by the time I awoke at about 8:30am. I probably would have slept longer but my mtoher doesn't even try to be quiet on a morning. The number of times I've been woken up because of her thumping around the house... Sometimes I wake before her but I always try to be quiet...

Anyway, I hung out with them more on Sunday too. I was supposed to be tidying my room but then they came in to hang out and we ended up throwing bits of paper at each other in a no-holds-barred free-for-all paper war! We even had protective headgear! lol! Well, I had an upside-down tin tied to my head with a ribon, Adam had an old witches hat from a Halloween a few years ago and Steph had a brightly-coloured summer hat from when I was really little. XD It was completely hilarious! And childish! But fabulous! 

We let Spike out of his cage to run around a bit as well and went "catting" - like fishing, but trying to catch cats instead! There's a bamboo pole my mother uses to bang on the ceiling and she tied a mouse on the end of a length of string to it and I was using it to play with the cats. 

So, yes, my weekend was a lot of fun. 

This morning, I tohught I was going to be late for work because I'd missed the bus I was supposed to get. But instead, my dad drives past me on the way to the bus stop and I got a lift in! I arrived early! Despite the fact I'd been running around getting ready and then chasing Raz when he got out! Stupid cat...

But I've had a generally good time. Which is good because last week wasn't that great for me. So now I'm kinda balanced in the good/bad department. Now I need to get back to work!

Raz is hurt. It's Adam's fault too but has that little bastard come back from his girlfriend's house to look after him? Hell no!

And why would he? After all, these are only the cats he spend more than two months beging to bring home as soon as he was told he could have one if our mother allowed it. And after discussing it with me, he was. So tell me, why would he bother to look after them?

Argh! I really just want to rip his head off!

Oh, but I haven't said how Raz got injured yet...

When Adam went back to his girlfriend's house, he left his bedroom window open. Our windows open on an angle from the bottom so for any creature trying to get in or out of that, it's not going to be easy. Raz has succeeded once, landed with the loudest bang on the conseratory roof. Poor thing was so terrified that as soon as I opened the window properly, he jumped right back inside. But this time he wasn't to lucky. He got stuck and started yowling really loudly. My mtoher told me she thought it was a child crying at first. But no, shhe goes upstairs and finds Raz stuck in the window. He's walked with a limp ever since.

His leg doesn't seem to be broken though and we can't afford any vet's fees so we can't take him to get checked out. But he's limping less and less every day. I didn't see him right after the accident so I don't know how bad it was but he seems improved from yesterday. With luck, he'll be better soon.
