Sorry for the late-by-a-couple-hours-post! But I’m sure if you’re like me… Today you’re probably wrapping up loose ends and getting ready to relax for the holiday weekend. Take some time to consider wrapping your holiday gifts in some green wrapping paper, if you can find good news!

Okay, maybe this comic is a little more sad than it is. Well, I’d been planning and looking forward to this perfectly adorable one-eyed adult kitty for a while now. I met her in person, and she’s very beautiful, a little shy, but the foster says she’s a playful lap kitty. Unfortunately, due to my monetary circumstance, I’ve just come to realization that adopting or taking care of any kitty at this point in my life might not be such a good idea- I’m stepping up apartments soon, and paying a hefty fee for the broker and security, let alone the increased rent. The holidays and birthdays are sucking away my money too. And lastly, I just found out that my lame medical insurance won’t cover my four wisdom teeth (all impacted) that need to be removed. It’s all been a huge headache, but I had previously thought it would just be a busy time for me, not necessarily a fiscally troubling time… It’s not just the adoption fee that would be a problem, but the food, vet care, and all else that comes with owning a kitty again. I was just so looking forward to coming home to a kitty at my door.

Well… Maybe in the springtime.

Poor Mike. I’ve ogled over everything I’ve seen in the stores from Williams Sonoma items to X Box 360… And the stuff I hunger for is always super expensive. But he knows that, in my heart, all I really want for Christmas is a milkshake. Okay, maybe a couple of milkshakes. And a DQ Blizzard. And… well I could go on and on. But I won’t because now it’s dessert time. Yum.
