2nd, actually. I keep getting that Saturday and Sunday mixed up for some reason. I'm just going to start saying, "First Saturday in April" and stop trying to remember the actual date.

Anyway, I would love to go kidnap the calico then, but I really and truly can't afford to add a third right now. Just a bit over half of what I make every month is going to rent and car payment. (I won't bore you with the rest of the paycheck breakdown, but I've got it all figured up.) Putting a kitty through shots and spay would be putting a strain on my budget that I don't need right now. So as much as I coo and whine and threaten to come steal her away...

Besides, when I'm heading out to Nashville that day, I'm planning to be up at around, "Oh my GAWD! How can you be halfway functional at that hour in the morning!?" and hitting Nashville right around, "Any sane person would still be in bed!" in the morning. And then I'll be heading home right around, "Oh my GAWD! What are you still doing awake and DRIVING at this hour!?" unless I can sweet talk the folks into covering the cost of a hotel room for the night. (Ok, so I haven't figured out specific times yet, but we're talking early EARLY and very late!) And I doubt Kim would appreciate anyone knocking on her door around that late, and I definitely wouldn't be able to keep a kitty with me throughout the con.

Now, if my boss happens to come along and say, "Lacey, you're doing good work! We're giving you a primo raise!" I'd probably take along a carrier and Kim would have a visitor at, "Oh my GAWD! What are you still doing up at this hour!?"

In the meantime... *melts again at the sight of the cute kittens* So precious! Kim, give them lots of kisses from me (especially that little calico)!
