Why?

Why do cats have to rub up against everything? Why is it that every freaking day my daughter's cat finds it necessary to walk between my legs making sure to rub up against each leg at least 10 times. And why is it that the cat normally decides that the perfect time to walk between my legs is when I am walking? Why is it that when I am ready for work and I'm wearing my clean and nicely pressed black pants it occurs to the cat that what would really accentuate my black pants is half of it's freaking fur. And lest you think I'm exaggerating, the cat's fur actually explodes off of it in little puffs of fur as the cat walks around the house. So it's not that I'm a bad pet owner, it's that I have a bad cat.

On a totally unrelated point I started going to church this year after taking a few decades off. I am doing my best to be a better person. There is one lesson that keeps coming up over and over and over again and it is this; love your neighbor as yourself. Love your neighbor as yourself. Love your neighbor as yourself. And everyday as I go about my life trying to be a better person, that thought runs through my mind. I tell God that I am totally on board and I'm going to do my best but maybe he could mention to my neighbors that it would help if they could stop acting like such assholes.
