Well, That Was Interesting
Ugh, I was outside on my patio a little while ago and 3 or 4 flying roaches dive bombed me. Ick! I hate roaches and I particularly hate flying roaches – which are pretty common in Hawaii.
I don’t know what set them off, but they were just flying around, going nuts! I had to run inside since they were flying on me and I just watched them fly around for about 5 minutes. My cat was quite entertained though. She sat by the window completely mesmerized.
I must also apologize to anyone who get this via a RSS feed. In order to boost up the security of my site, I activated a plugin which actually messed up my entire blog. I tried to fix it, but after looking for fixes for 3 hours, I decided to just reinstall my blog. Whoppeee!! The best part? The last backup I had was from 3 months ago. Yay! I guess it’s a good thing that I hadn’t been writing much over the last couple of months. I was able to retrieve my old posts via a feed I was subscribing to, so I pretty much had to copy and paste a bunch of stuff to get it back online. Yay!
I also encountered a stray dog today. I’ve seen this dog around the neighborhood for a few weks now. He would come around to eat whatever cat food was left out for the stray cat that I take care of. I saw the dog and just decided to go outside to see how it was doing and it was soo happy that someone came out to interact with him. I felt so bad for him. I gave him about 4 bowls of food and he ate every drop. I tried to get him to drink some water, but he wasn’t interested. I got a look at his teeth and they looked healthy and clean, so I think this dog might have been abandoned – which really sucks. The poor thing was really dirty and a lot of his hair was matted. The guy definitely has fleas and/or mites though. I could feel myself getting bitten just being near him.
Ooof. I don’t know what to do. I don’t like to see animals suffering since it’s not like they can take care of themselves. I wanted to take him to the Humane Society, but the dog definitely needs a bath first. Either that or who knows, maybe I will soon be a dog owner. Hahahahhaah. The dog was very friendly though.
Wow, I should go to bed – been staying up waay too late this past weekend. Man, I love 3 day weekends.
