Spectre
October 13, 2000 - April 5, 2002




Hell-beast, brat, beloved cat.


Today lordaerith came home to find Spectre stiff and lifeless in 3Gs closet. We don't know how it happened. We are blaming ourselves: "I should have seen the signs." "We should have called the vet." etc. I feel very numb. I didn't believe him at first. But then I saw the cat with my own eyes. He was my first cat. Aerith is taking this very hard. I grieve silently because I must be there for him. Nayone is here too. That is good. The more love that people have around them when tragedy strikes, the better.

I still don't believe it. he was our first cat. I was even thinking about when he was going to get older and when i had a kid how he was going to react. i was thinking about how i would deal with the grief the child felt when he died. But I guess it will never happen.

An air of heaviness sits on the apartment tonight.

Good-bye Spectre. May you rest in peace.

well, Spectre finally got neutered yesterday. Poor thing! but the vet was really nice and said that he was a very good boy the whole time.

however, he wasn't allowed to eat anything after 8pm on tuesday or before 8pm on wed. He was such a hungery kitty! He kept jumping in the trash can trying to find food in there. I was so glad when I could finally give him food!

Then this morning I was awakened by his yaweling at the door at 6:30am. So I got up and let him in and he was very good and cuddely. I think that he just wanted to be with us b/c I put out more food for him, but he ignored it and followed me around.

I think that he is recovering well. I really hope so.

In other news, after we dropped the kitty at the vet, Aerith and I went to Six Flags! I LOVE HAVING A SEASON PASS! We got to get in at 9 (instead of 10) and therefore there was NO LINE for the Superman. I really love that ride (except for the first climb). So between 9:15 and 10 we went on Superman twice, the Scream (my other fave), and the Thunderbolt. After that we were like "We might as well go now", but we hung out till about 12, riding another ride or two (not the big ones) and eating over priced food. We didn't bring our suits b/c we didn't think that the weather was going to be hot enough. but it was. if we had known that we probably would have stayed longer and gone into the water park. oh well.

so, last night we decided to let the hell beast in with us when we went to sleep. did you know that when you are asleep and kitty whiskers touch your arm tickling it, you might think it's a bug and freek out, until you wake up and see the kitty there staring at you? I found that one out last night at 4:30am.

not much else to write. the quest for the car is going slightly better. have to call a State Farm agent today during lunch and see what can be done and how much it would cost and so on. eeep. i'm kind of scared about the whole thing. but i really want the car.

Fires at Midnight comes out today. Got confermation of shipping. I hope it comes soon!!!
