Stuck Between a Rock and a Rafter

Nothing quite like running three miles then standing four hours to get the legs sore.
So, last night was my first night at work. I was being trained in concessions by an insanely hot girl. I don’t really think I actually learned anything, other than the shape of her ass. Man, I consider myself to be one of the few men that don’t constantly spend every waking moment wishing for, longing for, and thinking of sex. And I still write this shit.
So, yesterday afternoon, my stupid ass cat strikes again. In my room (basement) there are the regular floor boards and such as a ceiling. Toward the back of the house, there’s one of them hanging down about two inches from the brick foundation. Somehow, my cat got up on some shelves and managed to get her head stuck between the board and the brick. I heard her meowing, but didn’t think much of it, so I went outside for like an hour. When I came back in she was still meowing, so I figured she was stuck in a closet or something. I opened some doors, until I went into the bathroom. Heard her loudest there, but couldn’t find her anywhere, so I went under the bathroom, and there she was, head stuck in a brick. Trying to adjust her was almost impossible, and she kept crying and clawing anyone that got close. Eventually I got some soap and water and rubbed it all over her head, picked up her body so she couldn’t move, and slowly rotated her head to the point where she slipped back out.
Now she’s been afraid to come near anyone, and keeps holding her head really strangely. I hope she’s not severely hurt (she isn’t crying or flinching when you touch her anywhere), because we really can’t afford to have anything done to her.

All Good Things...

So, we’re fucked.
My mom lost her job today. Or, rather, she was told she will lose it in three months. I still haven’t found one, and I’ve been trying for six months.
So, the matter of my getting a job to pay for my car has just become the matter of my getting a job to pay for my house. Even both of us working full time at minimum wage won’t be what she was making before. So, there goes cable, Internet, phone, new truck, and my car.
I should have known though. I mean, my life’s been going decently. Ever since the Kori debacle, I haven’t had any problems. In fact, you know, I have friends, and I’ve been hanging around a girl I’m really into, and I was on my way to getting a job and being able to get some niceities. I should have realized something must be amiss: all good things must come to an end.
And, apparently in my family, all good things must be prevented at all costs. I think it’s something to do with Catholicism.
