Flew out to Denver with Julie on Friday. We managed to get on the same flight which was cool. She was on her way to a cat show in Denver and I was on my way to see Linda and Warren so travelling together worked out great. She's travelling with one of her girls called Sister Moon. Since Linda was going to have company Friday and had a class on Saturday, I decided to stay in Denver and see some of the show. Friday night I met up with Julie and her new boyfriend Mark. He's a really nice guy. He's a cat show judge and they met on the TICA circuit. We had dinner and drinks.
Saturday I showed up at the show around 10:30. Sister Moon had already finalled in one ring! It took me hours to understand the way the points and ribbons were scored but I think I understand it now. Very complicated. I must say, I thought I'd hate cat shows but I was hooked! It was a really cool environment and it was fun to follow the cats I liked. The judges were all different too and very entertaining. Mark especially, knows how to please a crowd. There were a ton of vendors too (dangerous, they take visa) So I bought some toys and cat earrings. Sister moon got 2 ribbons, I was off to Longmont.
Took my trusty rental just an hour to find Linda's home. I was determined to find it without directions. Warren got me to the highway, I found the house on my own! Not bad since I'd not visited for 2 years. Linda looks great. And HUGE! She's 30 weeks along and everything has gone perfectly so far. She's having girls. Saturday night we went out to dinner at the Texas Roadhouse. Fabulous food! Warren and I stayed up until midnight talking each others ears off.
Sunday we woke up to a fabulous breakfast prepared by Warren. Love a guy who cooks. Sunday afternoon found Linda and I at the movies. We saw a cute movie called "A Cinderella Story" with Hillary Duff. Thank goodness it was a matinee, you shouldn't pay full price to see Hillary Duff. She's a horrible actress. I am dumbfounded as to how this chick has become so popular. Sunday evening we stripped and painted some drawers for the baby room. Sunday eve we had Chili and watched a movie. Note to self - next visit, limit movie watching to theaters - Linda and Warren talk too much during DVDs!!!
Monday morning I was up bright and early to get off to the airport. Got there in plenty of time, met up with Julie, Mark and Sister Moon. Julie and I got seats next to each other, WHAT ARE THE ODDS?? Had a great chat the entire time. Greta picked us up. Got home around 3pm.
Kittens are still sick - UGH.
