Stop fighting fate.
Apr. 19th, 2004 09:48 amIn life, I guess it's important to refine your goals as you get older.
Elementary School Goal: Become a great actress. Or a cartoonist.
Middle School Goal: Become the first woman president and marry David Johnson. (Cute guy. Totally uninterested.)
High School Goal: Become a great writer.
College Goal: Become a brilliant professor. Get married, have children.
Grad School Goal: Ummm... not die?
Post-Grad School Goal: Get a master's of library science. Get married, have children.
New Goal: Have twenty cats.
No, really, I'm serious. I love kitties, and I think a house full of kitties will make me happy. Screw all that other stuff. I want kitties.
And getting to the twenty cats will give me goals. Like, if I want to have twenty cats I'm going to have to have money. Y'know, for vet bills and cat food and kitty treats. And a nice big house, because they're going to be indoor kitties. Yeah. I'll need a better job.

Date: 2004-04-19 10:14 am (UTC)You do know that cats do not naturally hang out in groups of twenty? They don't really like it. About 5 or so is your upper limit. And we're talking big big house.
You could just start helping down at your local animal shelter, that'd be like having twenty cats. Except, you'd have puppies too.

Date: 2004-04-19 10:34 am (UTC)i once thought i wanted to be a little old lady someday in a big house with lots of cats. now i think i'd settle for two or three. preferably from the same litter so they'd like each other. although that doesn't always work either.
