Ok, so last night may have been the strangest night on record in the life of Adam Swann. Are there ever times in your life where you end up in a certain place and say, "How did I get here?" That's what I was asking myself last night when someone was suffocating a cat in my backyard. I'm sure you want an explanation so here it goes.
My peeps and I have a cell group that meets in my bride and I's home on Monday nights. Everyone came over @ 7 pm. We usually have a light dinner, hang out for a bit, and study the bible together. Laura and I bought a new fridge on Sunday because the one that was in the house when we bought it tanked. It was supposed to be delivered before 5 pm yesterday. I called Lowe's at 5:30 to see where it might be and they said they were running late but were out and should be there shortly. They showed up @ 8 pm, right in the middle of some pretty deep discussion about the book of Romans.
As the guy was bringing the fridge in a cat walked by our porch that looked pretty rough. About 10 minutes later I had gone inside to help the fridge guy when I heard some commotion from outside. This cat had walked up on our back porch and plopped down right in front of our door. One animal lover said that it needed to be put out of it's misery because it was almost dead. I didn't think she was actually going to do it. I opted for leaving it there and maybe it would get up and leave later. Cats have 9 lives you know.
A word of advice. If this ever happens to you, just leave it. If it dies, you can dispose of it or maybe it will get up and walk off. Then you won't have to worry about it. After this incident, I know I'll never own a cat.
Okay let the cat out of the bag...bad pun i know. Who killed the cat?

That night was definitely one of the funniest and craziest nights of my life. The entire time all I thought about was the beginning to Pet Cemetery. God help us all......

Me and Kristin wanted to know if Laura was the cat slayer.

No, Laura wasn't the cat killer. I won't divulge who it was on grounds that I may lose my life. Jen, I am scarred also.

So, I have heard this story, and I think it's hillarious, but what's even better is to get Bucky Powers take on it. :) He's a funny guy.
