Hello from Chicago

I am on a business trip in Chicago for the next few days. Here are my observations about Chicago thus far:

Women in Chicago dress up to go to Target. Tight dresses and strappy heels. Wow!
The ranch salad dressing in Chicago is nothing like the ranch dressing I am used to in the NW.
This city kind of smells. Every time I go outside it has a "not so fresh" smell.
City landscaping is beautiful. Flowers, flowers everywhere. I am very impressed.

More observations to come.

WTF? My cat just crapped on the floor

Okay, so we got a new kitten. I made the mistake of taking my daughter to the vet's office when I was picking up dog food. Well, they had free kittens and you know what happened next.

So, we bring home this tiny 5 week old kitten. Black. Really cute. My husband was really pissed off.

So, anyways, this morning I am combing my hair and this kitten is running all around the bathroom mewing her head off... she's never done that before. Then, in the middle of the floor, she takes a huge dump. WTF????!?!?!

Evidently, she doesn't like the new litter I bought last night.... it is a bit like sawdust. Very unlike the gravelly litter that I usually buy (because it is cheap). I bought this new stuff because it doesn't have the nasty cat litter plume of toxic dust that you inhale when changing the box. It is green. Not really the color green, but you know, environmentally gentle on the earth. You get it.

That little bitch is going to have to get used to it because:

A. I am never picking up cat shit off the floor again.
B. I am never inhaling cat litter dust again.
C. I will return her ass to the vet. (Not really, but she doesn't know that.)
