Kitten? What Kitten? Looks More Like A Wet Rat

Tuesday I gave Apollo his first bath to get all the yucky flea poop off of him. He handled it like a trooper! He was not at all pleased with the warm water being poured on him, but he only meowed out of despair twice and made a few weak efforts to jump out of the tub. He even handles the hair drier fairly well, though it was difficult to tell if he was shaking out of fear of cold. Here's hoping with regular baths (and treats to accompany them) he will be a well tempered cat when it comes to baths.

Thursday was a so so day at work. I was reminded of how I wish some people could better deliver criticism  versus making it sound like I have no awareness of what's happening around me. Let alone criticism that comes without any comments on what I am doing well at. So kinda in that flailing phase of am I really doing well at my job or am I just doing enough to get by? I would like to think I'm doing a decent job, but it's kinda hard to tell sometimes.

Friday the Dark Night Rises came out. I almost wanted to bail on it when I heard about the shooting in Colorado. It's pretty depressing how cruel humans can be one to another. BUT that didn't stop me from going. I got home from work and hopped on my bike to head to Tukwila to meet up with Jessica and Adam for dinner at Claim Jumpers before the movie. Steven had the car since it was his last day of OT and his ride was sick. It was a great 11 mile bike ride, the hardest being getting to military road from my apartment (which was a mile of up hill XP).

Some of Steven's co-workers even joined us for opening day (I like this bunch!). As a whole, we all had a good time waiting in line the hour before sitting and now it's wondering what the next get together will be and when.

So that was the excitement of the week. I'm doing much better health wise. I even faired 2 days of naughty eating well. Blood sugar is proving steady and weight is still 172. Now I'm back on the band wagon and I must be strict since this Wednesday is Jessica's birthday and next Monday will be Steven's. Take care and thanks for reading!
