I left with a grin on my face, and took myself to bed. I curled up, and thought about the day. So much had happened, it had been ridiculously busy, a mixture of good and bad. And as I prepared to
drift into sleep I hoped that it would be a calmer day tomorrow.

When I woke up, I stretched, and gently nudged Pickles who was still snoring, loudly I may add. The bigger he got, the noisier he seemed to become.

'Pickles, stay still, I am going to gently pull you backwards.' I heard a little bit of huffing from Claire, before Pickles' face began to disappear backwards. Once he was freed I quickly went through the cat flap to join him. 'Well this is a bit of a pickle, Pickles.' Claire laughed at her own joke.

'It's going to be so much better for all of us, including me,' Jonathan said. 'Are you talking to Alfie or yourself?' Claire snuck up on us, taking us both by surprise. 'Alfie, of course, he's a great listener,' Jonathan said. 'Meow,' I responded. I really was.

I let Pickles follow me around the house, he said he needed to watch me to learn about being a better cat. I didn't even have the energy to point out for what felt like the millionth time that he was a puppy.

The children had been teaching Pickles the joy of playing with a tennis ball, which is something that cats see as being beneath them. Pickles would wait for them to throw it and bring it back to them over and over again. Which kind of highlighted the difference between dogs and cats, but if it made him happy...

If cats could blush, I am pretty sure that Dustbin might have done so. In fact, I swear his whiskers turned a bit pink.

'Is this what I think it is?' George asked, sounding horrified.
'What do you think it is?' I asked.
'A dog, they got a dog.'

'Look, George,' I said, hopping on my paws excitedly as the stars began to appear in the sky. 'Look at that bright star. What do you see?' 'It's her, I just know it,' George said, sounding happier, 'It's Tiger Mum.'

It had been a very stressful time lately, and for my kitten
George - who would probably argue that he was no longer a kitten but a proper cat - so we were enjoying a well-deserved holiday and a much-needed change of scene.

Galahad watch the colour of his hand, and talk to it, saying, Colour, is you that causing all this, you know. Why the hell you can't be blue, or red or green, if you can't be white? So Galahad talking to the colour Black, as if is a person, who is a worthless thing for making trouble all about.

Things does have a way of fixing themselves, whether you wory or not. If you hustle, it will happen, if you don't hustle, it will still happen. Everybody living to dead, no matter what they doing while they living, in the end everybody dead.

When Moses sit down and pay his fare he take out a white
handkerchief and blow his nose. The handkerchief turn black and Moses watch it and curse the fog. He wasn't in a good mood and the fog wasn't doing anything to help the situation.

"Glory, glory to the faaaa-ther. Glory, glory to the faaaa-ther..." Rosie sang as she dressed me, pulling the laces of the corset tight. My head lolled.

When I set my glass down I found another on the table, this one frothy, full. And suddenly, the bar smelled of sulfur and smoke. I was no longer alone.

"Oh Lord, be with us, your faithful servants, as we savor these blessings. In your name, of your name, for your name."
Faithful servants. Such fucking bullshit.

I realized, once again, that I'd been wrong about hell. I'd come around to the fact that it did actually exist, I'd found it, for real this time, beneath the bustling, steaming streets of Manhattan.
Hell was Penn Station. New Jersey Transit, the shadow realm.

There was a large red envelope resting on my doormat.
All this time, they'd known exactly where I was.
Of course they had.

This time when I laughed, it wasn't because I thought it was funny, or because I was angry. It was nervous laughter.
Doomsday laughter.
