Didn't leave the house today. Cat staring at me eerily. Hopefully in the next few days things will work out so that I can leave. But not yet. |

Keys in hand. Cat staring at me eerily. Saw my reflection in the hall mirror -- was that really me? Maybe tomorrow.

I fed the cat an hour ago. The coat and hat are by the door. I just have to wait. It shouldn't be long now. As soon as he goes to the litter box, I'll make a run for it. He is getting up and heading toward the bathroom. I am going for it!

Still here. The cat heard the click of the handle, came running back and has been watching me ever since. But I know he's dying to go to his litterbox - so I think I have the upper hand. |

I have cleaned up the cat turds from the carpet, but I think the plant will die. I am going to bed. I'll try again later.

Spent the last hour looking out the window. I counted only eleven people pass. It's probably a good time to go out. There was a gust of wind earlier. I've been itching all morning too, god knows what the cat's been up to. |

OK, the cat fell asleep in the bedroom finally. I snuck over to the front door, opened it and peered outside. Whoa, I had forgotten just how much empty space there is out there. I don't think I have enough emergency supplies to go out just yet. This might require a bit more planning. |

Ok. The schematics are coming together nicely. My block is now completely diagramed in Visio--the City Works Department stencil came in handy. Now I just have to find a contractor that will install all the electric eyes and infrared sensors.

It seems that no contractors are working over the holiday weekend. I'll have to scrap the remote sensing part of my plan if I hope to get out this weekend. Sunday Nov 26th 1:24 PM I made a huge step towards getting out doors. I know it was kind of rash but I couldn't resist...I actually tentatively touched the front stoop with my left foot to test the stability of the outdoors. It seemed solid enough but I quickly retreated back indoors after the test. I am on a total "high" right now after my daring move. This is sooo exciting. I really think I can do this. Of course, I will continue my preparations to ensure that I will be actually safe when I really "GO OUT". I'm going to water proof my coveralls and rubberize my scarf and stocking cap for a more thorough test tommorow. |

Prodigal cat returns! I found George a mess lying on my doorstep this morning. Such a Christmas present a reeking, skinny, foul breathed, matted and tangled muddy mess showing up at my door after disappearing for 7 years. I cleaned him up as best as he would allow me, as he grudgingly told me a mumbled and obviously abbreviated version of the last 7 years; Vegas, heroin, hookers, gambling, gun running, pimping, kitten trafficking...really, i think he withheld the truly shocking stuff on account of my sensitive nature. I think he has killed, he has a look in his one remaining eye that scares the shit out of me. I don't know yet why he came back, nor what he wants here. But I have to help him at least get back on his feet...i owe him that much. |

Another turn and the gate is locked. It's uphill both ways, but bring in one and throw out two. I offer this advice as a whiff of spring blew in the door. It was one of those days before the bugs arrive and the air is cool, full of oxygen and blue sky.
