This is a dream that I had when I was younger.

It’s short.

I was in a house and was about to play the game of Monopoly with the “Voodoo” lady and my daughter.

The house that we were in was having plumbing issues.

I unclogged the toilet and the tub was stopped up.

For some reason, a light fixture was connected to the shower’s draining system.

I tried to unclog the shower drain.

And my cat was sitting on the metal bathtub handle, where the bath water comes out.

The light fixture burst and caught fire.

When it finally dawned on me to turn the light switch off to stop the power, my cat was already fried.

One of my other cats hit the fried cat and she fell into the water.

She managed to toss herself out of the water and she stood up and finally collapsed on the floor.

I went to get my daughter and of course, she had a meltdown!

But she took this cat’s death a little bit better than the last one.

CUT TO

I’m still getting the money together with the Monopoly game so that we can play.

A family member of mine was discussing politics with the “Voodoo” lady.

One of the game’s playing pieces was a figure of an Egyptian queen.

And I handed it to her.

“Oh, Nefertiti.” She commented.

The family member who was discussing politics said something about Trump.

“Trump is president?” I asked.

“Yeah.” They responded.

“Again?” I inquired.

“Yeah.”

END DREAM

MESSAGE

Trump may become president again.

Chile…

My cats, we rarely bathe them.

Because they keep themselves clean naturally.

The last time that we bathed the cat in my dream that died, she had a fit!

She fought like a maniac!

When her bath was over, she would not let us get near her or touch her.

She hissed at us and hid from us.

I have never heard her hiss before.

ME: “Maybe she’s playing.”

DAUGHTER: “She is NOT playing with us.”

Lol…

My cat has seen her death.

The last cat that passed was acting funny before her death.

She would come sit by me and stare at me.

That was very unusual for her.

I kept asking her what was wrong with her.

—Like she was going to respond

She passed away that night.

I still haven’t allowed myself to grieve for her.

I have more pressing issues and matters to deal with.

I’ll grieve once we’re safe and away from this place.

The Monopoly game piece has a stark relevance in my life.

Cleopatra is the popular Egyptian queen.

But my mother favors Nefertiti.

She wore a necklace of the Queen.

And it looked exactly like the game piece.

There will be no reconciliation with my mother.

Not in this lifetime.

I forgive her.

But I don’t fuck with her.

I won’t even be at her funeral.
