To know me is to know that I hate cats. Absolutely hate them. I'm sure this will offend most of you cat lovers out there, but I gotta be honest. I think cats are ugly and extremely creepy. You just never know when they are going to pounce and scratch out your eyeballs. I seriously get the heebie jeebie chills anytime they come near me. Oh, and they lick themselves. Sick! I'm pretty sure I'm still traumatized by the nasty cat that gave me ringworm when I was a kid after I had barely touched it. Stupid cat.

Anyhow, my good friend Candace, who has known me since elementary school, got me a special gift for my birthday...

In case you can't tell, the shirt has an ugly kitty playing a keyboard while listening to an iPod. Absolutely hideous yet hilarious. Not surprisingly, Hannah is still able to look adorable in it. :)

And speaking of cats, Hannah attended her first BYU Cougars basketball game last night.

We bundled her up really well for the long walk from the car to the Marriott Center.

Cutie pie. I swear she's getting chubbier, right?

Our good friend Jen gave me one of her tickets. Thanks, Jen!

Hannah only shed a few tears after the first really loud cheer startled her, and then she quickly got used to her surroundings and loved being there. She was enthralled by everyone clapping and happily clapped and kicked throughout the game. I'm pretty sure Hannah never saw the ball because she was so busy smiling at all the people around her. She also took time to read her beloved books. She kind of reminds me of a certain librarian I know. :)

Go Cougs--the only cats I love! :)

**My favorite quote that I heard while I was still single:
Dating is awkward some of the time, but being the cat lady is awkward all of the time. :)
