Happy Caturday
A new study has shown that fawning over pictures of adorable animals actually boosts attention span and productivity; want to give this theory a whirl? Then keep reading, enjoy your Saturday and let me know how that works out for ya!
Bet opposable thumbs would come in handy right about now…
Excuse me, but this journal is private…
Happy Caturday!
Introducing: Sake
I’ve already introduced my youngest ball of fur, Stella, but I think it’s about time everyone meets the main little man in my life – Sake! 
Going to UC Santa Barbara for college, it was easy to get carried away in the party scene. Like, way easy. But first, you should consider my facts: I didn’t have a sip of alcohol until I started getting my college acceptance letters and I didn’t get drunk until the second semester of my senior year. The only parties I went to were at my then boyfriends house, and even then – I wasn’t that interested. But in Isla Vista, that all changed – and quickly!
I have a hard time saying no to fun and entering my final year I decided it was time to simmer down some; the only problem was – how was I supposed to develop that reflex where I was compelled to stay in? Having a pet at the time meant that I had to think outside of my party-induced, slightly selfish only child ways and devote time, energy and love to the growth of another creature. I was ecstatic at the notion; especially when my roommate at the time laughed at me and told me some women use that same line of reasoning to get pregnant and have children. Now, thinking back to that moment – I’ll now gladly take being a catlady any day of the week!

Friday Fun: Made You Laugh!
Every now and again (okay, maybe more now than again), I could use a good laugh. Scratch that. I could always use a good laugh! Not one of those ‘laugh inside to yourself’, nor one of those contagious laughs that can wash over a room like a wave – but a good hearty from the belly, squealing and almost crying laugh.
I spend a lot of time in my head, circling the days events and looking to the past for clues on how to handle myself in the present. I love the keen introspection and perspective I gain on myself and the world. The sheer notion of self discovery is amazing and I wouldn’t trade the mini-epiphanies I get on the daily for anything. Now, don’t get it twisted – those moments of self discovery are hard earned and most of us have the emotional battle wounds to prove it. There are some crazy fucked up things that happen in this world; but without those moments, would we honestly be able to speak to the amount if pure beauty we see around us?
And shared laughter, even if that person you’re sharing that ‘howling like a five year old who got a unicorn that shits candy for their birthday’-laugh just with yourself – is one of the most beautiful things in the world.
So, without further ado – I bring you the things that have put a smile on my face this week!
First things first, it’s that time of the season again – election time! One thing that I can mostly promise is that I will not try and argue politics with anyone; I like facts, and from what I can tell – political opinion has little to nothing to do with facts 😉
Secondly, I love cats. I have two furry faces that run around my apartment and they’re the lights of my life. They also are what comprise roughly 40% of my Instagram feed and 60% of the pictures on my phone. I love my cats so much that I talk about them to random strangers and my friends; and my friends sometimes like to fuel my cat loving fire.
Third, being the nerd that I am – I have an admiration for scientists and a love for discovery. And this bottom image sums up pretty nicely how I feel about movies based on science but not based on fact.
And last, but certainly not least -this might be one of the best videos of the whole summer and I’m still not sure how I managed to avoid it for as long as I did; so if you’ve been hiding under an equally fun rock or just didn’t get the memo – check out PSY – GANGNAM STYLE (강남스타일) M/V. It does not disappoint.
