2009 what a start...

2009 is off to quite a start... however, New Year's day was not the best welcome into the year. This was mostly due to cleverly locking our selves out of our apartment and having to pay some con-artist locksmith lots of money to do 5 seconds of work. But since our beginning misfortune things are looking up. I had a fun weekend visiting NYC with my best pal Haley where we ran all around the island in search of the perfect kitten for her to adopt. I had no idea that this would be such a challenge. Apparently, not only is it not kitty season (who knew?!) but most NYC adoption agencies also have a policy that prevents you from adopting only 1 kitty unless you have 1 at home already... they insist you adopt 2 at a time! Finally, on our last stop we found an adorable 4 month old black and white kitten (newly named Tux due to his fur resembling a tuxedo) that was a perfect fit and luckily made his way home with us. That night we had a fondue party which was quite entertaining considering we some how messed up and it took the cheese about 2 hours to cook- in the end it was still delish and we had a great time. Can't wait for our next trip up to my favorite city... DC is a very close 2nd and let's not forget how amazing Austin, TX is!
