I'm heading into work at the testing center in a bit. Full timers Boss and Blossom will be attending a division picnic of sorts, and Boss has left Party Girl and me in charge for the day. Let the games begin.
The campus is relatively quiet these days since spring semester ended. Summer session starts next week. A few services are around like security, the library, and us in testing. Advising, maybe?
A couple of weeks ago, during finals, we ran out of space in testing and overflowed a few students to the advising area. Boss was manning the place, and I took some students over. A couple of advisors were in the area... working on a jigsaw puzzle?
Boss later said that they worked on that puzzle the whole time he was there. "I shoulda been an advisor!", he joked.
Okay, maybe not many students are meeting with advisors during finals week? But a couple stayed around just in case of drop-ins? It was a good sized puzzle. A 1000-piecer at least.
Meanwhile, Wolfgang returned from a fun getaway with a friend this week. I had been seeing to Wolfgang's cat during his adventures. Ideally, we would have the cat "board" with us, but that wouldn't work with our feisty cat Napolion.
So I'm now off the hook from cat duty. Wolfgang's cat is a big fluff. It's hard to tell if she's fat or just has SO much hair.

"Does this fur make me look fat?" |
She lets me pet her, but in general, is not big on being touched. So I can't really "grope" her to see how much is chub and how much is hair.
After she'd eat, she would lay on the floor like this, belly exposed. I've heard that's an animal's way of showing their trust in you.
Or maybe she was just baiting me.
That is one cute kitty!
ReplyDeleteJohn, yep! And she knows it.
DeleteI've seen that Tactic with Eli, the Devil Cat, don't fall for it, you're being Baited. *LOL* Looks are deceiving, they look so welcoming, but it's in the Eyes. *winks*
ReplyDeleteBohemian, I'm pretty sure you're correct
DeleteWe're having Elder Son's cat and dog to stay later his week. Cat has me wound around her . . . um, tail? She is usually fed dry food but I feel sorry for her and buy her wet food when she stays.
ReplyDeleteLiz, cheat days for the cat!
DeleteI applied for an advisor position; I think I'd be good at it! I probably would not have been, say, 10 years ago but now, I do think so.
ReplyDeleteAllstarme79, good luck! The better advisors I know had also been instructors.
DeletePeggy, she's affectionate with Wolfgang, but wary of outsiders. Probably something to do with her mysterious past.
ReplyDeletelol on the how much if chub and how much is hair.
