Ah! My hatred for cats is now explained! So they don't just invade my yard, but they also infect my beautiful manuscript.....Curse them.
Actually, I'll do better than curse them. I will take my neighbor's evil, evil cat (or rather, one of them, since she has many) that I swear is one of Shiro's incarnations, douse it in gasoline, and throw it off the bridge. At night. And I will watch as it falls 500 feet, and I will hope that the cops will NOT find me, and also that I will be able to see the cat light up in flames.....Yes. This sounds like a plan.
