  [Cat #1] is naught!

  
  

  y!

  
  

  Last night I was in kind of a cranky mood because I was filing and updating paperwork and then paying my ER bills

  
  

  She was whining and whining and whining and she would NOT SHUT UP

  
  

  and I sort of understood how some parents can be driven to abuse their children

  
  

  I was busy and she wanted me to drop everything to put her outside

  
  

  but I knew as soon as I put her out she would want to come in

  Sometimes she stays out for a long time.

  
  

  She wants what she wants. She's a cat.

  
  

  She knows that whining usually works.

  and she kept going into the sink to lick the silverware I had used

  And she barfed up her breakfast yesterday.

  Is having cats not worth it?

  Me
  

  
  

  
  

  sometimes

  
  

  is having a wife not worth it?

  
  

  you sure deal with a lot of hassle

  If only you were a good wife.

  
  

  My parents don't approve.

  Me
  

  
  

  
  

  you shouldn

  
  

  t have married me

  
  

  tell them they were right

  Primo
  

  
  

  
  

  I didn't do it right.

  9/25, 1:59pm
  

  Me
  

  
  

  
  

  that would solve all our problems!

  
  

  they wouldn't know it's a lie

  
  

  because they will never visit us again!

  
  

  tell them we are getting divorced! It is the perfect solution!

  Primo
  

  
  

  
  

  Yeah, but then I'd have to lie to them about everything.

  Me
  

  
  

  
  

  so?

  
  

  then they would stop complaining

  Primo
  

  
  

  
  

  They'd find something else to complain about.
