Castle

Downs

  • Last night I decided not to give Calvin ibuprofen. This was a mistake. For the last couple of nights he’s been sleeping silently until it’s time to wake up. This means I get to sleep more. However, last night he started making noises around 3am. Around 4:30am I got up and gave him ibuprofen and he went back to sleep for a bit only to wake up bright and early at 6am.

Ups

  • I received season one of Castle from the library the end of last week. Our library use to check out each disc of a tv series separately for one week. The main disadvantage of this is our catalog system is not capable of realizing that people would want to watch disc 1 before disc 2 so they have to be really careful or the holds get mixed up. As a result, the librarians recently decided to check out the entire season together for a two week period. I received Castle at the end of last week so I have one more week to watch the episodes before having to return it. I think I preferred the earlier scheme as I don’t think I’m going to make it through the series in time. However, I’m still enjoying the series quite a bit.

Cute Calvin Moment

  • As I mentioned yesterday, Calvin doesn’t usually cuddle. However, he does have this cute habit of padding up to me and trying to rest his forehead against mine. He starts moving again the instant I try to hold him but it’s still kind of charming.

Simplification

  • The next folder in line for trimming is “Weld.” However, that’s such a huge folder I didn’t feel like tackling it tonight so I took the easy way out and shredded everything in the “Boulder Music” folder.
