A Moment of Sadness, Nothing More
Recently I've been thinking that I would not mind having a pet of some sort. It's been a long time since I had my two gerbils to take care of. I was thinking of something along the lines of a cat. I think it would suit my personality.Then I realized the practical upshot of spending another four months here, a short summer in Utah, another year in Spokane before having a year or two in the JET program in Japan, leading to about a year in Santa Fe getting my masters and then who-knows-where for who-knows-how-long for a doctorate.
For at least four years, I won't even be able to keep a Japanese Peace Lily.
That's all I have.

I'm sorry. :(
I know kinda how you feel. My family just got a puppy a couple of weeks ago, and though for over a year I've been sad and lonely because there wasn't a dog to play with, I find that now I hardly ever get to see the dog. I can cuddle with him for a few moments at night when I come home, but other than that, I scarcely see him.
You know, you could just adopt cats you find on the street. Then there would be no guilt when you returned them to their natural habitat at the end of your stay.
I'll just go ahead and say it myself.
Brilliant.
