Well Dang
I boiled a cat's head.
It was an accident, I swear, I didn't mean to! I thought it was a rabbit's head, which in my mind somehow makes it okay. But boiling a cat's head is NOT okay.
My son made me do it?
I mean, My son made me do it!
We were at our favorite park which has a little creek running through it and sometimes when I'm feeling kind of cool, I'll let the kids walk down near the creek. Every now and then, when I'm feeling really cool, I'll let my kids walk in the creek. But yesterday I must've been feeling like Ultimate Cool Mom because when Ben found a skeleton head of a "rabbit" it was MY idea to bring it home.
---There goes my "my son made me do it" defense---
I had visions of playing the paleontologist I had once longed to be (that's not true) with my kids as we uncovered the truth about this poor little dead rodent. Then we uncovered that it wasn't a rodent. After three hours of boiling the little guy it dawned on me that he didn't have two long front teeth characteristic of a rabbit. In fact, he had two sharp, fang teeth. More characteristic of
of
of a
of a cat.
A CAT!
There is something SO WRONG about boiling the head of a cat! Bunny Foo Foo is one thing, but Fluffy? Aren't there cults based on cat boilings? I'm so grossed out! Ben thinks it's awesome, of course. I have a feeling all the people who followed this little calamity on facebook will not let me live this down any time soon. I've already had someone suggest buying this for me for Christmas...

So there's a story for the generations. Surely there's a Biblical truth hidden in this gem of a tale somewhere but I'm going to need some time to tease it out. Right now I need to burn the tongs and scrub brush and throw the pot I used away - immediately.

I think Cool Mom might still apply- it WAS dead and this was science!
I can't wait to share THIS amazing tale with my co-workers because if they don't think you are crazy already... they will now. This is the funniest thing EVER. It should be in a book. I can't believe you picked up and brought home and BOILED a cat's head in your kitchen, in a pot you cook in with your children watching. This is just far out, dude. bahh bahh bahhhhhhhh
