Could things get worse?
Just when I thought it couldn’t get worse, of course, it did. First, I picked up my kitty. My big kitty known for being big and muscular and energetic. I could feel every rib and vertebra... He’s lost weight again, probably from not eating and depression and is just barely larger than half the size he was at his peak. I thought he had dropped weight recently, but was stable. Well, yesterday I realized how much more he had lost in the last couple of days. It’s appalling... At least, I have him eating a little chicken and tuna right now. Hopefully, he’ll pull out of it and gain some weight.The second is equally appalling. I’m on unemployment, from the state of California. That in itself is an extremely long story since I live in Texas, but has meant a lot of changes for me. I had to leave my apartment because the delay between Texas benefits and California benefits was a couple of weeks that I couldn’t afford zero income. Since I moved, California needed to know exactly why I moved and how long it took. They decided that delaying benefits was required until they got a complete answer. And they took an additional two weeks to interview me on that answer. Needless to say, I’m disappointed that they now owe me nearly 2 months worth of benefits and it will probably take me almost another month to get all that money. I would have preferred staying in my apartment, thanks. I would have, too, had they paid the initial payments in time. Nothing like being at the mercy of a bureaucracy three states away... With luck, I’ll get some payout by Christmas...
So, to add to my personal/girlfriend woes, we now have sick kitty issues, sick step-father and bureaucrats. I need a vacation from my unemployment...
