I might not starve

[icepixie]

Because I a.) need to get practice for cooking for myself this coming year and b.) I have no job and ohmygodI'mgoingtokillmyselffromboredom, I've taken it upon myself to cook dinner (or most of dinner) every night. It's working out fairly well after three days. I'm not as hopeless as I thought I was. I won't be making anything truly complicated anytime soon (or probably ever), but I'm feeling better about being able to survive for a year.

Took the cat to the vet today to see what was wrong with his tail. I never want to hear such howling as he did while she was moving his legs around. Ever. There was much hissing and fur flying and general nastiness. The vet found the biggest abcessed cat bite in the world after anesthetizing him, which will have to drain for a while. *sigh* If he's going to get into cat fights (even though he's been neutered...grrr), he really shouldn't be an indoor/outdoor cat, which means that since we have dogs and a dog door, well...free cat to good home?

*sad*

Man, I can't cook.

Correction. I can cook cakes, deserts, biscuits - anything sweet. I cannot time cooking potatoes and peas and steak all at once. Something invariabley goes wrong.

*sad*

*HUG*

I know how that feels.

Have you put the fire department on alert yet?

Good for you for cooking! It's a lot of directions, timing and art. As long as you're not as bad as this (http://www.livejournal.com/users/parrotofdoom/12938.html) (third paragraph), then you'll be fine. :)

Sorry about the cat. Does your vet have any tips about helping him be less agressive?
