...or she could have punched, thrown or probably even just yelled at the (most likely 11 lb, again slightly larger than house cat) creature loudly enough and not had to crazily strangle it to death like some kind of hill billy maniac.

This is hitting me hard this morning and I’m still trying to come to grips. I’m currently doing the work to try to get a handle on my depression and it’s so fucking hard. And it’s expensive and time consuming and draining! But I’m hoping there is light on the other side. But when I hear about Anthony and Kate Spade,…
