infobits - infopalat

Again, a Finnish customs agent asked me in Finnish if I had my Finnish passport with me. I simply replied in Finnish, no I do not. *stamp*

First things first. Jetlag. My first impressions are that I am really fucking tired and it's 11:21. It's Sunday morning, very calm, and certain pieces inside clicked into place as I landed. More later, because there are many things that are stimulating me at the same moment.

Cats: Pieru (grey) and Thingie (orange)

Cat food: Fill feeder if it's low. Thingie starts to get paranoid when it's low. Extra food is in the office behind the brown curtain in a white bin. Either cat can hack the machine and turn if off unintentionally. This does not happen often. You can hear the feeder dispense food twice a day.

Cat litter: In downstairs bathroom along with litter bags, which are sandwich bags. Clean litter DAILY. What is dirty to us is beyond bearable for a cat. A clean litter box equates to a calmer night's sleep. Thingie will complain. Take cat litter to garbage cans in garage on lowest floor. You can't miss it.

Vet: Info on fridge

WiFi: Info on fridge

Food: Eat. Staples are in several cupboards and in the pantry.
Keep viili culture alive: How do I make viili?

Booze: Drink.

Cat-proof advice:
Exercise Thingie with the laser pointer and his balls.
Use earplugs if he is too loud in the morning. He can be a noisy fucker if he is pent up.
Keep toilet lids down.
Keep bathroom door to litter open.
Put dishes in the sink or dish washer. Gravity equals broken glass.
Put your eye glasses out of cat range at night.

Injections of the normal sort do not typically entail the smell of sulfur and the *thwap* that could be only one thing. At the very least, there was the sound of a clean needle. Sounds like these throw me off for a few moments as I ponder the life of a random junkie. This person was not under a bridge or elsewhere outside. My gut is that the person holds down a steady job and is being destroyed by a major addiction.
