How To Ask The Right Cow Questions

I had so many questions

I had so many questions.

I was in the bread aisle at Kroger when I spotted a very tall, heavyset woman wearing a cow costume.

Complete with horns, udders, and a tail.

She was also wearing bear-claw slippers.

And a flowery fanny pack.

I stared.

How, exactly, had she managed to buckle a fanny pack around that massive cow costume?

More importantly, why was a cow wearing bear-claw slippers?

I had so many questions.

But I hesitated to strike up a conversation.

What do you say to a gigantic cow-bear woman in the bread aisle?

Excuse me. What’s up with this getup? Do you dress like this every day? Why?

I briefly considered taking a surreptitious picture.

Then I reconsidered.

She was as freakishly large as I am freakishly small.

She could take me out with one hoof.

Or paw.

Whatever.

I decided to mind my own business and went on my way.

Still, I had so many questions.

And now I’ll never know the answers.

Unless, of course, I see her in Kroger again.
