Uneasing Peace

Just this morning we had two little beings running around practically tearing the place up. Now? No longer. The two tyrants from this morning are in complete hiding. Who are they? My cats, Niao Niao and Dan Dan. I finally took them to be fixed and they are anything but happy right now. One is hiding in a corner of the room almost completely covered by the curtain and the other (while walking around a bit more) is hiding in my room, happiest when we leave him be. Why did you have to fix both of them? Wouldn't it be fine to just fix one? After all with one fixed they can't get pregnant. Yes, but then if the female got out she could get impregnated by another cat. So just fix the female. Yes, but then if the male got out he could impregnate thousands of cats. Ah, so that's how it is. The people here don't understand. Having more cats in a country like this should be a sin. We can barely take care of any of them as it is with the way people react to cats here. Chinese people (for whatever reason) seem to mostly all hate cats. I asked a room full of about 50 people who had a cat the other day and besides myself there was only one girl who raised her hand.

So now their mother's sick (I've got a cold) and they're completely ignoring me.

Besides that today I packed up a bunch more things in my room into boxes and tried to take Cam's bicycle to be fixed. Unfortunately I was told it can't be fixed and can't be ridden cause it's missing a part. So I decided to give it to the bike shop. I got told off by my mother-in-law who insisted I should have taken it to the parts shop to be sold for parts. We'll see if I can again tomorrow, I have to take my bike to the shop to get air. Then I can sell my bike to a friend of mine tomorrow.

As you can see lately it's been a bit busy, although we're getting things done it still seems to be going slowly. One at a time. While I was here doing these things Cam was in Hunan getting his new passport, sending off a present to my parents and getting a notarized form saying that he's single (which he needs for the new visa).

I hope my cats will get along soon cause that'll probably help with the recovery.
