Wow, what a day! Although my morning was fairly dull, my afternoon and evening was PACKED. I stopped by the county courthouse for a (rather dull) court case and interview, and then later in the afternoon to a homeless shelter/soup kitchen to discuss a new form of donating via text message. After that, we were planning on interviewing a lady on a story about a teacher posting pictures of her drinking and kissing her former students (also girls), but we were diverted with the news of a lady in a nearby town who was being evicted and charged because she had over 40 animals in her tiny house. We traveled there and worked for about 3 hours. I got to hold some sweet, tiny baby kitties - SO cute! Then, we went and shot a clip of the owner and her caretakers leaving the house, which was so disgusting I can't explain. The officer said the house smelled so badly of urine, he could smell it through the charcoal in his respirator. Anyways, the lady was also severly malnourished - she was skin and bones, and her stomach was protruding - like you see on those videos of dying African children. The lady had 33 cats, 2 dogs, 4 ferrets, a rabbit, and dozens of mice all in a tiny home that was GROSS. What a story.
Too tired to post the things that entertained me :) I work tomorrow and Sunday, so look forward to more exciting stuff, haha.
