So...May isn't February?
I keep forgetting that it wasn't until I had been in my job for three months that I moved, so the last few days have thrown me off. Someone apparently decided to skip fall this year, so we've gone straight on to winter; it's in the low 40s when I'm waiting for a bus in the morning. "Weird," I think as I shiver. "I don't remember it being this bad in February!" It probably was that chilly in February, but at that point I was driving to the Metro from my old apartment, not waiting for a bus at my new place. It wasn't until the end of May when I started riding the bus. And let me tell you, I am not particularly looking forward to waiting around all winter. Brrr!
In happy news, Colin now has a little sister. I got Pemberley on Friday and she and Colin are getting along fairly well. Colin still regards her with suspicion, but there's also a lot of cute sniffing of each other. Dinnertime is a bit more interesting now, with Pem trying to get at Colin's wet food, then Colin later trying to eat her dry food. Pem is super friendly and follows me around everywhere. And she likes having her tummy rubbed, which is a nice change from Colin, who will expose his soft tummy, then attack me when I try to pet it. But it's so soft! He just doesn't understand.
