Not a good day

[rflong]

Really. Not a good day at all.

The cat didn't come home last night. No sign of him since yesterday morning and I have now managed to get myself worried sick imagining all sorts of awful things. Logically I am sure he is ok. He is a tom, (or formerly was) and they roam. I have owned one before and should know what they are like. That's logically. I don't really do logically.

I went to a funeral this morning, the dad of a friend I have known since I was about 4 and that really upset me.

Finally I got a rejection, a very nice and polite one, from the Nelson Literary Agency for The Penitent.

So now I have the joy of starting all over again!

I have decided to do nothing tonight except drink a very large gin and tonic (or two) and tomorrow I will take another look at the Macmillan New Writing submission guidelines.

And look for the cat again. (tonight, that is)

Good luck with the cat. It look slike we've just lost one of ours (the "works" cat); not seen since Thursday, coincidentally the same evening a man was in the adjacent field with a shotgun, supposedly shooting rabbits but you have to wonder.
