Net Working

So, of course you all know how lazy I am by now.  My biggest weakness.  However, there are certain things that I go above and beyond to do and you know what?  Most of the time it involves my friends.  If there is one thing that I have gotten from college, net working is definitely it.  The more people you know and are on good terms with, the more opportunities you are exposed to.  Just remember that, if not anything else.  Because ultimately, when it comes to a job where the employer knows and likes someone versus a job where the person is a blank face, well, I think you know who will get the job.

Oh, by the way, I took Hortense back last Tuesday, it was very sad, but I think that she will do okay.  I don't think that I could get another Kitty anytime soon because she was the very best cat that I've ever known.  I would take her, but I cannot assume responsibility for a living thing at this unstable time in my life.  Who knows where I'll be in a year from now.

Strange Human Behaviors

The other day, Animal Refuge Center in Muncie, IN flooded.  They lost electricity, the furnace went out, animals were dangerously deep in this water, etc.  Within a couple of hours, all the dogs had foster homes.  A few more hours and all of the cats had foster homes.
My question
Why do we not feel sympathetic for our fellow man/woman when they are on the streets?  Why would we take in a stray animal before letting a human stranger stay in our home?

And yes, my roommate and I are part of this statistic.
This is Hortence; also known as Kitty or Sabrina.
She is our foster cat until her home is fixed.

Procrastination At Its Finest

Here I am at 5:43 AM, I woke up around 9 AM yesterday morning and have yet to go to sleep.  Usually I would blame this on my insomnia, but about two or three times a semester I have another excuse: too much homework.  Of course, this is all my fault, I could have easily prevented this by buying the book at least a few weeks ago instead of ordering it last Friday and receiving it Tuesday.  Not to mention actually working on something or studying for something ahead of time.  After 4 years of college, you would think that I would learn this shit, but no.  I'm alive off of uppers and plan on being alive on uppers until around 8 pm this evening.  I guess every action has a consequence.  I just know that if they had a major in procrastination I would have my Doctorate by this point in time.
