WAFFLES: A Goober driver!
KATIE: You mean an Uber driver? ...not that an Uber driver is any less crazy of an idea than a goober driver.
WAFFLES: Uh yeah, that.
KATIE: So where did this come from? What happened with the whole chicken ranching thing?
WAFFLES: Oh, I'm still going to be a chicken rancher. But I need to save up some green papers for chicken ranching school.
KATIE: Let me guess. The University–
WAFFLES: – of Chicken Ranching.
KATIE: You know, you have to have a car to be an Uber driver. They don't just give you one. You'll need a valid drivers license, insurance...
KATIE: Does Gloman know you're going to borrow Gloman's car?
WAFFLES: I've been practicing too. Like looking both ways for chickens crossing the road.
KATIE: Waffles, most people don't drink chicken gravy. Don't you think you should offer coffee? A cappuccino or latte would be nice.
WAFFLES: I just have to figure out how to punch the gas and steer at the same time.
KATIE: And watch the road?
WAFFLES: Uh, yeah. That too.
KATIE: People of the world, especially you with cars. You might want to consider alternative modes of transportation. Like just staying home.
Cats, the Internet & April FoolsKATIE: And watch the road?
WAFFLES: Uh, yeah. That too.

If you were on social media for even five seconds the other day, you probably saw at least a few cat-spoofs swirling around out there. Our absolutely favorite is this short *commercial* for Grouber. The people at Groupon decided to see what it would be like when you mix cats with cars. Uber cars that is.
And yes, as a matter of fact, the featured *driver* is orange.
Enjoy!

About Today's Photos
You may have already guessed, the car photos with Waffles are from our recent family vacation. While we stopped at a gas station, Glogirly climbed into the back seat and let the yowling (Waffles) cat out of his Sleepypod. While he was inspection the car interior frontto-back she snapped a few quick shots with her iPhone. It is indeed RARE for her to post photos that she's taken with her phone on account of she's all picky about only posting the best of her photos. But you've got to work with what you've got.
The first photo is an oldy but a goody. We've got a few photos in the archives where it looks like Katie & Waffles are having a conversation. And in fact they usually are. It goes something like this:
WAFFLES: Meeeeoooooowwww *reaches paw slowly to Katie's chest*
KATIE: *stands her ground* HISSSSSSSS.
Rinse and repeat.
