THE KITTEN FUND
Hi guys, as you know I don’t really use facebook or twitter too much any more (if at all) but tumblr seems a bit less chaotic for this. I’m on the verge of anxiety overload (I have a condition I believe, I’d just like to keep it secret) and I think I need a kitten. So, I’m raising my money and my knowledge of kittens and cats and posting about it on tumblr. Daily I will attempt to blog about kittens and cats in order to keep my dream alive, and of course tell you the funds I am getting as I get closer to my kitten dream.
Lets hope this works.
20 dollars of my 500 goal!

So any turns that I can’t see
Like I’m a stranger on this road
But don’t say victim, don’t say anything

Currently reading another John Irving book. He has a way of writing strange, sometimes moral characters doing un-moral things and you rooting for this un-moral act.
Once I’m finished reading it, hopefully during Christmas, I’ll write a review of it on here. I need to do more relaxing things like that.
Here’s the summary:
Ruth Cole is a complex, often self-contradictory character - a ‘difficult’ woman. By no means is she conventionally ‘nice’, but she will never be forgotten. Her story is told in three parts, each focussing on a critical time in her life. When we first meet her - on Long Island in the summer of 1958 - Ruth is only four.
The second time we meet Ruth it is 1990, when she is an unmarried woman whose personal life is not nearly as successful as her literary career. She distrusts her judgement in men, for good reason. The book closes in 1995 when Ruth is forty-one years old, a widow and a mother. She’s about to fall in love for the first time.
Richly comic, as well as deeply disturbing, A Widow for One Year is a multi-layered love story of astonishing emotional force. Both ribald and erotic, it is also a brilliant novel about the passage of time and the relentlessness of grief.
Should be interesting.

Such a good song… I swear, whatever emotion you are feeling then this song will make sense to you. I feel like its hitting a special cord right now, so its on repeat.
