Random moaning please ignore

I'm feeling really crappy at the moment and there's not a proper reason why. It's just lots of little things.

Work is busy, meaning I have to work through the next couple of weekends and may not get to Canterbury at all this season.

My cats aren't getting on, meaning the spectre of having to return Sunshine is always threatening, when I'd hoped it would be gone by now.

I may have to miss the Cardiff ODI due to work and cats and stupidly, stupidly booking a date in September when I knew it would be problematic.

I need friendly cats, South Africans to do well, and some chocolate. I'm going to remedy that last one right now.

right, you. the cats. it is early days. they are still getting to know one another. at the end, maybe they just won't get along. they may still be able to tolerate one another.

nothing at work can possibly be so pressing that you cannot take a couple od days off. if you took a half hour lunch break for a fortnight, that's most of the two days off made up for right there. if there is too much work, what are your employers doing to help? who is assisting you with this? what support is your manager providing?

sorry. am somewhat tipsy and was quite hoping to make your acquaintance in wales!

oh lord. drunk in charge of the internets. that was meant to be more supportive, less interogatory.

There should be some kind of breathalyser test before you log on.

There should also be some kind of test to ensure you're not just tired and self pitying before I post as well....

we've all been there.

i think your subconscious is upset that if you do go to cardiff, you still won't get to see graeme's special batting. to your subconscious, i say: chin up - there's far more to be seen on the balcony.

My conscious is deeply upset that if I make it to Cardiff, I'm going to have to watch bloody Kevin Pietersen being smug.

[thatrachie.livejournal.com]

it's easier to avoid the smugness at the ground than watching it on the telly. i'm just saying!

We can leave before the smugness and go find free range Herschelles. I'm happy with that.

You'll miss Jacques Kallis being tetchy and sad...

If it comes to it, my parents will have Sunshine or he can move in with us and Wispa.

He won't have to go back to the cat home. I promise.

But I want him to live with me! He pulled off the most amazing two handed catch of the green ball last night, and so is definitely a Hersch.

Strauss only chased him four times today. And Hersch chased him back once, so I'm feeling more optimistic. This may have something to do with the two danish pastries I've eaten.

I want Herschelle to live with you too. He'll be happy with Strauss and being indoors and having chicken, but if it does get all terribly stressful he won't have to go back to a box.

I've found there are few if any situations in life that don't get a little bit better after a danish pastry. Especially if it's a maple pecan one, or one of those big curly ones with icing on.

And he's a fielding cat! That's fantastic. He wouldn't be indifferent to cricket.
