The cashier, so bright and bubbly for a Saturday morning, asked us, “Do you have cats?”
I stared at her, and turned to Mr J. I was lost for words.
He said, “Yes, two.” And continued a small talk exchange
with her, as he paid for the bag of litter. As we walked out of the store and
towards our car, he asked me, “Why didn’t answer her?”
I told him, “because the only thing I could think of to say
was ‘No cats, we’re just perverts.’”
