Current Life Plan
(Steps not necessarily to be done in exact order.)
Step 1: Get required income for starting own home business.
Step 2: Get home business making good money.
Step 3: Get a cat.
Step 4: Get a big, slightly derelict house with a long, dark front walk.
Step 5: Get another cat.
Step 6: Plant a bunch of creepy trees and vines all around house.
Step 7: Get a few more cats.
Step 8: Let hair grow really really long and tangled.
Step 9: Start breeding cats.
Step 10: Grow old.
Step 11: Acquire a few more cats.
Step 12: Acquire walking cane.*
Step 13: Wave cane and shriek at passing neighborhood children, preferably with cats on shoulders, around feet, etc., meowing incessantly.
Step 14: Sit back and have a nice cup of tea with favorite cat on lap and laugh about all this stuff going on now.
(I'm actually more than half serious here! I don't have a problem at all with being the "crazy old lady at the end of the block with all the cats." Even when I'm in my darkest depressions, I can always handle the company of a cat!)
* Oh yeah! I already have the "snake staff!" If the osteoporosis kicks in properly once I get old, it should even end up being the perfect height for a walking stick! It's just a tiny bit short for me right now. (Course, I did say that not all steps had to be accomplished in order...)
