When last we left our hero, she was bemoaning the fact that her car died, kaput, and was only able to sell it for scrap for $150 after the mechanic hauled it out of the middle of the road.

Now I'm going back and forth a lot on the Sunset bus, which means I can get to Amoeba and my Starbucks, and so far that's kept me from going mad, though eventually I have to get to other places, like work and peoples' houses and the grocery store, and do other things, like shop and do laundry and then carry it home, so I think we're definitely in the band-aid phase of the healing process.

Also, Hawkeye, my boy cat, my furry boy, who's been with me for ten years and through as many apartments, who's driven across the country with me twice, is MISSING.

I mean, sometimes he wanders off or spends the night with friends, and has been known to be away for a couple or three days at a time, but it has now officially been OVER a WEEK and I am SCARED! I made signs to put up all over town, but I'm especially worried because he had fleas and so was engaged in some nervous licking, and was all patchy and raw, and I had to spray him with the anti-itch spray, which he hated, and it was a sad night a week or so ago when I went to spray him and he freaked out and ran off... and has not been home since.

That was a long sentence, but my furry boy is worth it. If you live in LA, he's black and puffy and scared and wonderful and patchy from licking, please help me find him!

Shit. Bad weeks for cats. Keeping my fingers crossed for Hawkeye's safe return.

Thanks. I miss him so much already. Come hoooooooome!

But in other news, happy belated birthday, and I LOVE YOU.

Thank you. I miss you. The time until Easter is going to be UNBEARABLE.

So it's really Easter, then...? Okay. I will try to hang on that long without hugging my N.

Yeah, I know, I miss you like crazy. You could be here right now helping me meow out the window!

Yeah, Christmas is absolutely impossible now. On the upside the university is closed for Easter so I can save all my leave days for perhaps a second visit in August! So exciting it's untenable.

*meow, meow*

awww, Hawkeye. Did you do careful searching close by? I believe that most cats who freak and get lost are usually hiding not far away. I hope he shows up soon!

Yeah, but I can't get to the places where I think he's hiding, there's a fenced off yard behind my house and iron fences separating all the houses from the yards of the houses behind us, and he went out the back window. I've been shining the flashlight around and meowing plaintively...

Oh, no! Hawkeye, come home! Sooty, the black male shorthair of my teen years, was gone for three weeks once then came up the driveway meowing like crazy one day, just to make sure we all knew he was back I suspect. No idea where he'd been. We were all sure he was dead. There is still hope but it slices slivers out of your heart every time they wander off, doesn't it?

*hugs you and prays*
