"excuse me, miss, would you like to see some of my pictures?"
"huh?"
"i have some pictures from my vacation and would like to share them with you."
"ok.....?"
Photo 1 of 75.
Here, his cat is about to board public transportation in Arizona.
In a stroller.
Please make note of the generous stack of photos. Please be aware that his cat was in every single one of those photos. Every. Single. One. Please imagine my face as he narrated the pictures. Please think about my eyeballs looking in vain for the hidden camera crew.

Cat in stroller in front of Johnny Rockets.
I can't unhear the time of day, location, cat's demeanor, and pure delight of this gentleman's voice. While it was so sweet of him to share, this half hour was one of the most painful half hours of my life.
I managed to take photos of his photos by claiming my husband is from Arizona (truth) who happens to be a huge cat lover (false) and asking if I could take some pictures to share with him. The old man was FLOORED, I snapped these two with my phone, and completed the best acting gig of my career.
Yes, for my actions, I realize I'm doomed in the afterlife. *sigh*

i guess i am glad he was happy you were so interested? sure, you were interested in putting his quirky obsessions with his vacationing stroller bound cat on your blog, but nonetheless, you were interested.
Oh wow but I'm so glad u snapped pics to share with the blog world! At ryans grndpa's funeral a family friend told us about his dead dog that he couldn't let go of who he kept int the freezer of his rv. Ryan and I did not keep straight faces very well!
were you high when you made this completely crazy story up? because there is no way it's true. it's just too weird. and i peed my pants a little while reading it.
creepy cat people.
btw, remember chloe? she would've taken pictures of herself and put them on my facebook page just to be creepy. she really would've. that's how creepy cats and cat people are.
except for that otis, he doesn't seem creepy.
neither does his owner!
lol, jen i was totally about to call you out on that!!! :)
but: OH MY GOD. OH MY GOD. seriously best post. cannot believe he actually had real pics and not on his camera to show you. wow. old school. and it was a crazy cat guy?! so glad you happened to be such a quick thinker and able to document these! i mean, johnny rockets?!?!?!
this made my day.
katie, are you SERIOUS?! that is so disturbing. i might've wanted to record the story on v.camera....don't know how i would've pulled it off. definitely more bizarre than cat-in-stroller!
i am laughing hysterically at this right now! way too bizzarly entertaining.
you are not doomed in the afterlife. you'll get a good spot because you made a strange man happy by listening to his story and then you brought joy to all your friends who laughed at your suffering. :)
i read this post a week ago and i'm STILL laughing.
