Cat grows wings
A Chinese woman claims her cat has grown wings.
http://www.ananova.com/images/web/989102.jpg
Granny Feng's tom cat has sprouted two hairy 4ins long wings, reports the Huashang News.
"At first, they were just two bumps, but they started to grow quickly, and after a month there were two wings," she said.
Feng, of Xianyang city, Shaanxi province, says the wings, which contain bones, make her pet look like a 'cat angel'.
Her explanation is that the cat sprouted the wings after being sexually harassed.
"A month ago, many female cats in heat came to harass him, and then the wings started to grow," she said.
However, experts say the phenomenon is more likely down to a gene mutation, and say it shouldn't prevent the cat living a normal life.

Granny grows horn
A Chinese grandmother has a five inch horn growing out of her forehead.
http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_2335990.html
The horn curves downward and looks like the stalk of a pumpkin, reports the Yangcheng Evening Post.
Granny Zhao, 95, of Zhanjiang city, Guangdong province, says it first appeared three years ago.
"At first, it was only a mole, but it gradually grew and became like a horn," she said.
Zhao says the horn causes her little trouble except to affect her vision slightly: "It causes me no discomfort, but blocks part of my view."
But her family are hoping that medical experts can explain the phenomenon.

i just found out that i will not be losing my annual leave after i leave this job, they will be cutting me a check for my 212.25 hours of accrued time. i don't get paid for my sick leave but still.
that gives me a little bit of a cushion.

a friend said he could probably get me something where he works, not even sure what it is but he said it's super easy and it's a pretty good gig. he did say the pay sucks but i was expecting that. if that falls through i spent part of the weekend dusting off my resume and that will be going on monster shortly. i'll also be putting out feelers for bartending/bar back/door duty work. temping if all else fails.
