I'm not quite sure where the week went! I had meant to talk to you on Wednesday, but now it's Saturday and I'm only just getting around to it!

I now have two fish, which two different people got from the Fish Wish event on campus that I did not go to. One of them had some sort of sickness when it was won, so it was named Chemo. When I showed the second one to my roommate, before she even knew about the first one, she took one look at it and said "Nemo!" So as a result, I now have two goldfish which I did not name. I changed the water in their bowls a few days ago, and now Chemo is all better, so people are now calling him "the Jesus-fish," but I'll wait and see if that actually catches on, or if its name will remain Chemo.

I'm also getting two kittens in a few weeks! I picked them out today, but I don't know what to name them yet. But I'm intending on coming up with something unique!

They are four weeks old at the moment, and I had mom take some pics of them with my phone while I was holding them. The dark-colored one kept climbing up my shoulder and talking to me, and the orange one tried to crawl around in my arms and only talked a little bit. I didn't hold that one for as long as I did the first because their mother was getting nervous. She had seven kittens! And she's not that big a cat! Her sister is helping her nurse the kittens even though they aren't her cats, which actually happens fairly often with cats that live together as closely as they do. It has something to do with hormones, I'm told.

And yes, those are in fact engine parts in the background. They live at a mechanic's shop in Mass, and my dad works with the guy who owns it. There are also two other orange kittens, two gray tabby ones, and a dark gray one, but these are the two I want.

I think I've procrastinated enough for now, so have a great week!

Until next time,
