Ok I don't know what it is with this week and dead animals but it's pretty depressing.
Let's start back at the beginning.
Wednesday night I'm driving to book club (or drink wine and eat food club) with my roommate and some how we started talking about the old rail road tracks and giant abandoned warehouse behind our street. Meg tells me that it use to be a slaughter house and meat packing plant up until the 80s and the tracks were used to cart animals to their death! Property prices were really cheap back then because you could hear the animals. There is no way I could ever live on my street with that going on. I don't care if someone threw a house key at me and said I could live there for free. I'd be crying myself to sleep. I believe the warehouse will be torn down and built into condos. I'm sorry but I'm not having the ghost of dead cows mooing at me in the middle of the night. I wouldn't feel comfortable living in a converted slaughter house.
I was already pretty upset by this news but then I get on the T yesterday and there are posters everywhere of a bob cat stuck in a trap. It was an ad against fur. (Which I completely agree with. No need to be wearing dead animal but that's just me). I was ready to start crying on the T. Not the poor cat! Nooooo!!!
Today I was looking at some old news papers that the attorney who founded the law firm I work for had in his office. He passed away during the summer so his office is getting cleaned out. There was an article in an old paper with an adorable little pig on the front rubbing up against a tree. "That was his pig" my co-worker told me. "How cute" I exclaimed. "Yea, he ate her." What!!! Why?
This is just too much bad animal karma going on here. I think I need to look at some LoL cats or watch the Mark Wahlberg talks to animals snl skit..
