The Cat Woman
Hopefully you didn't just get a visual of me wearing a black leather suit like Michelle Phieffer did in Batman Returns (and if I just helped you get there I'm really sorry!) Every once and a while I think about getting a cat or seven, whatever.
In May, Mom and I, along with A.A. went down to visit Gramdma. It was a long trip! A.A. is some one who requires a lot of attention and demands it. Everybody took their turn taking care of her, we would tell each other after the outrageous things she said, we would laugh and at times get angry. She lives so far away from her family. She doesn't watch T.V. (I know right?) Doesn't travel, I'm really not sure what she does with her time.
After the trip I did a lot of reflecting and got scared that I might be her some day. Will people be taking turns with me some day? Will they laugh about the crazy things I say? Will I live far away and avoid my family so I won't hear them laughing and they can't see my lonely life?
Every now and then these images haunt me and I think, I might as well start taking in cats!
