So Amy and I have five kittens, about four weeks old, that need homes soon. Any takers?

They are grey, like their mother. Two of them have white strips on their faces, one larger than the other. One is completely grey. Those are the boys. Both girls have tan bits of fur spread across their bodies.

I'll have pictures up as soon as I can get my hands on a digital camera. In the meantime, I'm not working anywhere full time, and I'm looking for work. Check out my resume for more about me and my skills. Unfortunately, many of the sites I've built in the last couple of years are either changed (not always for the better) or temporarily (we hope) down. Nonetheless, you can get at least a good sense of my skillset if you check out the resume.

So, back to the kittens. We're looking for homes for them. We'd prefer places where they'd be inside cats, but we're willing to talk with anyone who is interested.

Oh, and they're totally adorable.

It's nearly the middle of the night here on the West Coast, and I'm preparing to go out for a run. Amy's sleeping--she's been so busy with homework and student teaching, she's hardly getting enough rest. Tonight, she went to sleep at a normalish time, and I'm glad for it.

Tomorrow, she teaches her first official lesson--on homonyms. Or, more specifically, homophones.

On Tuesday, I lost my job. The beautiful, wonderful company I worked for is out of money. There's a chance things will work out. And a chance that they won't.

So I'm taking stock of myself again--trying to figure out what to do. I can certainly freelance for a while, though I wouldn't want to survive off of it. But that's not what I mean. I think this may be a divine push in another direction. I have no idea what that direction is, but I'm willing to look every which way until one way makes more sense than the others. I've always wanted to be a teacher. And a writer. Among other things.

In the meantime, if you've got any leads on work, especially freelance work, you know how to reach me.

And in the meantime, too, peace be with you.
