i’ve cleared most of the clutter in the living room, but twice today moses has urinated where he was sleeping, and the second time (which was just a short while ago) was a HUGE mess and just EVERYWHERE. not only is it demoralizing when this happens, but it makes me feel like i just can’t keep up with his needs. i had been thinking all evening _i should carry him back to the litter box in a while_ and then i walked into the room and… sigh.

i’m starting to have serious doubts about having a party saturday. i love halloween, but maybe this isn’t the year for a party. maybe a sick pet and a houseful of drunk party-goers isn’t a good combination. obviously, it will also be a strain to get the house ready, although it is good to have a deadline for this sort of thing. i doubt i’d be as far along as i am now if i weren’t planning a party.

finally, i’ve heard from at least one person who said that saturday is a really overbooked night. not that i need to have the house packed to the gills to feel like the party is a success, but given how little effort i’ve put into telling people about it, i’m not sure that much of anyone will be coming.

i don’t know.
