Dead Cat

Okay, I know this is disgusting.  And I know I'm supposed to be writing about Christmas.  But for some reason, I found this hilarious.  Think of a cat that's been run-over in a cartoon.  Bulgy eyeballs, tongue hanging out ... flat.

Well, that exactly what they look like!  Here's one on our road.  


And lucky us, a few days later, the dogs had brought it right on our driveway!  So nice.  Merry Christmas!


Fortunately it was garbage day.  My sister Rachel and her friend Paul are visiting, and Paul is fearless so he found some sticks, scooped the cat into a handy pizza box, and delivered it to the garbage man.

And the garbage man didn't even look inside, but he said, "What, a cat?"
Ummm, as a matter of fact, yes.  I guess when you're a garbage man in American Samoa getting a pizza box full of rotting cat parts is normal.

I'll write about Christmas soon.

Merry Christmas!

P.S. You never sent me a wish list. I guess you'll have to get a Mrs. Claus gift from me for New Years..

Ha ha! I couldn't believe the eyeballs actually looked like the cartoon type! The garbage man was classic, too. Thanks for sharing!
