Went by way too fast, that's for sure.
I ended up not having to go into work & just do a few things from home instead, which was nice. Usually when I'm told to stay home it means no pay- but not anymore :)
Saturday was a busy, hectic, full day. We were out running a few errands and then we seen it... "PetSmart Adoptathon!" Oh God. I'll want every animal in there. Let's just go to Target & T.J Maxx liked we planned... alright we'll just take a peak. Well. We *almost* got a young boxer- she was SO cute but some couple was actually already filling out paperwork for her so that was bittersweet, but probably a sign that we cannot afford or have the room for another dog.
On to the cat side of the adoptathon...
Neither Carl or I are cat people. Never had cats of our own, dogs all the way. BUT then we seen her. She was inside PetSmart rolling around in her little space being all kinds of goofy. Let's read her info: Oh she likes dogs? Nice. Oh, she is spayed & all up to date on everything? Double nice. Well, let's go home & think about it.
We went back in less than a hour and came home with now named, Binx :) She's a 3 year old Tortie and she has thumbs. Swear. They call them "hemingway cats" or something (I may be wrong, I'm not sure.) But it's so cute. She seems to be adjusting really well and Loki is getting used to her a lot quicker than I thought she would.

| This is the best picture I could get of her at the moment :) She looks small but she is a chunk. |
On Sunday we had Wendy & Joe over for some lunch & then headed out to Navy Week downtown & checked out all the ships and whatnot. We only toured the Willis B. Boyer because all the others had super long lines and it was way too hot to wait so we just walked around for awhile, it was nice despite the blazing hot sun and no breeze, lol. C'mon, Fall!!
