Here kitty kitty

Precious and Frodo were good cats today. Chased Frodo around, but he held still while I snapped on the harness. He wiggled as I adusted it, it is uncomfortable no matter how I situate it. Then Frodo and Precious went out on the balcony all crouched down as if hiding. Precious came out and we walked around on the grass for 10 minutes and I ran upstairs to see if Frodo would come down now. He needed reassurance in the form of petting and then came downstairs. First half hour went well with the kitties mostly lying on the grass. Dog came out to pee, and the owner directed it away from my cats. One concern I have about the leashes is that if a dog charges at them, it will be a difficult for them to rush up the tree like lightening and balance on the branch with the leash hanging on them. On the ground, it does slow their pace. Anyway, often one cat would wander while the other remained still. 2nd half hour, Precious kept bolting to the dumpter and I hung on. Then a man came out and shouted to his woman in the window. Precious went up to the man and waited for a petting. He didn't so Precious came to me for petting . Precious tries so hard to get strangers' attentions but very few will have anything to do with him. To end the story, Precious came inside so I took off the leash and waited around with Frodo to finish their time outside. Frodo had to carried in and then a dog comes out of our door. Waited for then to leave before entering and unleash Frodo. When we got to the apartment I snapped off the harnesses.

No crazy people at work, besides the ones I work with. When outside to get mileage on a van cause it was given in kilometers. I hit a bunch of buttons, got out the owner's manual in the glove compartment, and it just said the odometer reads in miles and kilometers. Nothing about how to switch it back and forth. So went back inside to find a lady waiting to rent her car. Asked 2 guys if they knew much about cars to help me figure this out. First guy said his car doesn't even have a remote so he can't help me. OK. 2nd guy wasn't sure unless he saw it so bring him to the car to observe the control panels. He pokes around hitting this, that, there, and viola! the mileage is changed to miles. I would have never figured out that 3 button sequence on my own.

Had a lady from Germany whose debit card didn't go through to go along with her prepaid rental voucher. Call the 800 number and I end up on the phone hitting 0 hoping to get a live person (automation system was not going to answer why her card is declining). It is a child support bank account and new rules state it can't be used for a car rental. She is shocked she can use it anywhere, except a car rental. I tell her that, Yes they should notify you of rule changes. So I let her use my phone to call her American relatives for their credit card. I just need to swipe it for 0.00 to give her the car and additional drivers cost nothing with her voucher (I checked and pointed on her voucher where it says that). So her family shows up and rent them the car. While renting to them, lady comes up and I say I will be right with her as she stands next to the customers. She sits down on the benches. She comes right back when another lady come up, standing beside the customers instead of behind as usual. When finished, I address the 1st lady and the 2nd lady claims she was here first. I interrupt declaring the other lady I know was here first. Help 1st lady, then 2nd lady, and back to inventorying the car keys.

I read the stamp is changing price again on Monday. Didn't it just go up 3 cents in January, or February. I tried to buy forever stamps at the post office today at their machine, it it only does stamps with a price on it. Anyway, this is long enough. Post later. Bye!
