I need money.
I need a job.
I want a ton of clothes.
I want a ton of stuff.
I want Chinese food everyday.
I want to buy books.
I want all of these cameras.
Today Blair, Tilly, Jen, and I went to Asbury Park, because I guess that's all we ever do, and we were hanging out with the cats under Howard Johnson, which we also always do cause they're so cute. There's always a ton of food in those tinfoil boxish things under there, with one filled with water. Today this woman came up with an industrial sized bag of cat food, another type of cat food [like the wet kind?], and a thing full of water and started giving it to them. The second she showed up they all sort of came out of hiding. She talked to us for a good half hour, and told us all about what she does for the cats. She's fed them every single day for eleven years. After seven years she ended up getting a ticket for it!? Yes, a ticket for feeding stray cats, and it was for "feeding the pigeons" she went, fought it, and people followed her to court. She ended up getting community service, and it was to help animals. She brought them a tarp through the winter to keep out the cold air. She puts food in two spots, one in one spot for one of the cats that's too shy to be around the others.
People like that just make me feel like being a better person, like doing that is just so great of her. I think I should leave her a note next time I'm there, or like, everytime I'm there.

Doing that is not "so great" of her.
I don't need several dozen cats living near my house, shitting in my sandbox, dying under my porch and carrying disease and filthiness wherever they go.
Half of these cats are probably sick and/or diseased and would have been a lot better off being put down years ago. But no, don't think about that. Just feed them because they're furry.
The reason she gets a ticket is because these cats are a possible danger to people, be it from the fact that they are physically unpredictable or that they carry disease. Feeding them does nothing but perpetuate a public nuisance and hazard.
If she wants to help these cats, she can take them into her own home, register them, clean them, feed them, vaccinate them, and be responsible for them.
I hope the cat food was the recalled kind. Put them out of our and their misery.
