Status Updates From The Cabinet

“‘Aren’t you scared?’

‘I am. But when you think about it there no time in our lives we haven’t been able to endure. If there was such a time, we wouldn’t have made it this far. We live with happy memories. But we also live with unhappy memories. That’s the power of loss and ruin.’”

“The reason telephone counseling is so difficult for me is because I’m too normal. I’m not messed up enough mentally to understand why on Earth a human would want to change into a cat.”
