cat morning

Something big, orange, and fuzzy stepped on my alarm clock this morning while doing his usual "hey, you, hairless lioness babe, get up and FEED ME!" dance.

I need to somehow make clear to him that if he turns off my alarm clock, he is going to have to wait longer for food, because I will fall back to sleep for longer than I should.

random encounter

I went upstairs to assist with a laptop/projector hook-up in the honors lounge for a presentation of some kind, and the program facilitator comes in while I'm setting up the projector. We chat, and then she abruptly says, "Are you Jenny?" I blink, reply "Jennifer, so probably not the Jenny you're thinking of..." thinking she's been in contact with one of the other zillion-and-one Jennifers in the world about this program, and she asks my last name.

Random 'program facilitator lady' is my cousin.

Technically, my dad's cousin, and it's a good sign of how distant that side of the family can be sometimes that we hadn't seen each other in more than four years. But as soon as she asked my last name, it clicked and I couldn't believe I hadn't recognized her before.

Totally fecking weird.
