Instead she carried me outside, unlocked the car door and deposited me on the passenger’s seat before walking ’round to the other door and getting in. I soon found out that Mom wanted a burger for dinner and we were off to Sonic.

The drive to Sonic was kinda long, so I ended up napping in my seat while Mom drove. I had a good cat nap for a while, but I eventually woke up when we were almost there. I knew we were almost there ’cause Mom had to slow down. Apparently humans aren’t supposed to drive fast in places where a bunch of humans live, but on the highways they go faster. So when Mom had to start driving slower I knew we’d reached a town and were almost there.

Mom likes Sonic because their burgers taste better than the other food-made-fast places and because she can just drive up and never leave her car. Some people looked at me weird when they walked by our car and saw me curled up in the seat playing with a pen. What, have they never seen a cat in a car before? Silly humans.

On the way home though we had a bit of a scare ’cause some stoopid human waited until Mom wasn’t almost on top of him before pulling out in front of her. This was back on those roads that called “highways” so Mom and the other humans are kinda driving fast. Not this guy though, he was on a side road he stopped then waited until Mom was like three feet from him before pulling out real slow in front of her to get to the other side of the road where he pulled in front of another human driving a car. Mom managed to turn the car so that she was driving on the side for a bit. It was bumpy but she managed not to hit the idiot human. And she did it while driving fast and one-handed too. Her other hand was holding me in my seat so I wouldn’t go flying. If I’d been laying down like normal it would have been less scary, but I wanted to see what was so fun about sitting up and watching out the windows like Isis does. I think I would have preferred not to know how stupid some humans are.

That brings up another point, why do humans have late night shows on T.V. that talk about things like colon cleanse reviews? You just need to get out on the road with the stupid humans that drive. That’ll take care of ya!

When we got home Mom left me in the car so she could carry the food in without me getting under foot. I was hurt. Do I get in the way whenever there’s food? Of course not! I just like to show my appreciation for the delicious scents, and if the humans drop something all the better! But Mom came and got me as soon as she put the food down in the house. Isis and I both got pieces of Mom’s burger. I should have gotten more though ’cause I went with Mom and kept her company.
