My current couch and chair, though I like them, are almost ten years old, and I wouldn't have bought this nice clawy fabric if I'd known there would be cats on them someday.

Those are the exact reasons we bought a new couch. Including needing a smaller one than my current Blue Behemoth, which I bought when I lived in an apartment with more open floor space than The Boy's house has.

I remember seeing that in the Air & Space Museum at the DC F2F, and several of us having a good geeky laugh over it.

I am relieved that our department cancelled the holiday party this year 'cause of budget stuff.

Our holiday party got moved to January so that we could have it with all our new employees.

We usually do a Secret Santa in December.

Isn't snuggie billed as the blanket that won't slip off? I'm sure enclosing the limbs together is warmer, but I wonder how one gets in.

I wonder how one gets in.

Lots of wriggling. It looked like a two-piece thingie.

I offer this without comment.

But the feet would get cold!

Well, no one's reported a cat to animal control or the county humane society and I've now listed him with our local no-kill shelter.

Oh, sumi, I hope you find him soon.

The first thing I need to insulate when I get home is my toes. That snuggie 2.0 is the inverse.

msbelle, I would at least make myself a plate and sit. At an empty table. But I would blanch at the idea of a gift exchange, because I doubt I'd want what anyone would get me, and I'd get something crap for my giftee.

sumi, I am hoping you find him near by

Thank you, I hope so too. Silly cat - it was freezing outside last night!

I hope he comes home soon, sumi! (And/or is hiding in a closet somewhere...) That's scary.
