Im feeling really guilty for lying to my boyfriend about checking in on the cats. Honestly, it seemed like one of those things that you should just lie about, but communication and being myself are sort of two big points on my list. I should come clean. I mean the cats are fine, no harm no foul. But that sort of makes a person think "Well, sure you can tell him the truth and thats just dandy. But what if one of the cats had succum to starvation. Hugh you little liar? What then?" Hmm, I probably would have held that I had been going to feed them, but never really saw either cat at all. And that would be a complete lie. But it definintely sounds better than "Oh yeah, you know when I told you that I had been checking in on your cats and they were doing just fine? Ha! Well, funny story. I tooootally lied to you on that one okie dokie? Oh, and by the way, your cat is dead." I mean, on review of the options the lie looks increadibly more appealing.
This isnt even the first time I almost killed his cat, which is even worse. He had told me a couple times to always shut his door becasue the cat would go into his room, bust the screen, and run around on the roof. This cat is a Munchkin, which is like a weinner cat, it is declawed and, needless to say, an indoor kitty.

I was riddled with guilt. The cat had fallen to its death, the cat had died from heat exhaustion, the cat had been attacked by an eagle, the cat was dead. then the next day I came inside the house and was greeted with a "Mauuuuuw." I ruffled its head, tickled its chin and clung to it in near tears. I didnt kill you! I thought triumphantly.
So, I should probably come clean about both incidents.
Is this the part where your readers start spewing advice? Maybe, maybe not but I'm going to give you some anyway. My advice - just let him read your blog. Your guilt drips from your words like ice cream on a hot day
