Monday night, J had a dream that our close friend's grandfather passed away. The next night, he passed. This isn't the first time he's dreamed of something that's come true. Though, so far, it hasn't been a death. Shit like this does NOT happen to me. I'm kind of freaked out by it. It's usually arbitrary stuff.
I paid $60 for some study CDs for the licensure exam I have coming up. DH found them, didn't know what they were, and instead of asking me what they were or assuming they belong to me, he threw.them.away. Into the trash.
Just. I don't understand him.
He thought he was being super helpful by getting rid of "junk" stuff lying around the house. Even though we just purged junk before we moved. I had never even listened to them or put them on my phone or anything.

That could have been book money.
RAGE. This would fill me with it.

It did. I felt like my head was going to pop off. I cannot understand how throwing them away made sense to him. He is truly sorry and feels bad, but I'm not done being mad yet.
I took Alex for a walk in town this morning. We stopped to browse in the book store, as usual. Alex saw the store's dog and cat and shrieked "doggy" at the top of his lungs. A employee came running yelling, "OMG what is that awful noise!"

Someone uploaded the WRONG cover to Goodreads for my second book today. I totally freaked out. My agent talked me down. It's been taken down now. I swear this shit is aging me.
Also, my dog has been sitting in the main room of the apartment, staring at the ceiling in one spot. There is nothing there...that I can see, anyway. Creepy dog.
I write sexy books. I read all the books. I love dresses & macarons.
We took our three kitties to the V-E-T today, and they all got clean bills of health. Our chunky one had part of her butt shaved though since she's not so good at cleaning it herself. I think she's embarrassed about it. But the best part (other than healthy babies) is that I was covered in adorable kittens while I waited! They have an adoption room and there were 7 kittens in there. 3 of them were about 8 weeks, and the other 4 were around 3-4 months. Kitty pileup of love and purrs!
I did a ropes course yesterday with a zip line. Yay adventurous me!

I'm cold. I know I live in Canada but 17 Celsius (that's 62 for you south of the border) in August is just ridiculous.
NH isn't much warmer. I have had my space heater on in the office for the past two days straight.
Ugh now it's starting to rain. We better have a nice rest of the summer. *Shakes fist at Mother Nature.

I have no idea what the weather is like. I'm in the middle of an old mill building with no windows.
I know you'll all hate me for it, but if it's like the weather your describing, BRING IT ON!
