and my kitchen has been blitzkrieged. stripped to the bones, more or less.
oddly, despite the fact that i knew i was getting a new sink, it didn't dawn on me that this meant the old sink would go away. apparently, i will have a sink again next wednesday - as in, 8 days from now. (but the nice man left me the bathroom sink, he says they can cut the template with that in place, and it should be easy to pull the counter off later.) however, this puts an unexpected kink in my cooking plans - well, that, and the fact that they guy i work for on the weekend figures that, since i'm not working during the day, i would _love_ to come work for him in the evening...and i'm not wild about bbqing in the dark. well - i can certainly use the money. and the nice man won't come till about noon tomorrow (he's picking up the new hardware first) - so i think i will hit the local cafe and get myself a nice big breakfast, and hope that will hold me. i stopped by the store tonight and got paper plates and bowls (compostable!) - so i don't have to deal with washing dishes - and since it's just me using the silverware, it's ok if i just lick them clean, right?
the kittens handled things pretty well. angelina surprised my by cruising quite calmly past the guy when he first came this morning. she then spent the day in the closet, not to emerge until he had gone. fred stayed out and kept an eye on things - mostly from the safety of my lap. but he didn't race off every time the man walked by - which i greatly appreciated, since that usually means the claws digging in for takeoff. now they are both exploring the husk of the kitchen carefully - no doors means they can cruise from cabinet to cabinet (to light fixture, to shelves, to ...) with ease.
