I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The socks aren't warm. They are my attempt to make myself FEEL BETTER.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

My Santa hat is actually really warm and if need be, I wear my cashmere liner underneath it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I used to wear holiday-themed earrings (Halloween, Christmas, Valentine's Day), but no longer. I have some Christmas pajamas, but that's it.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

6 Adorable Cat Behaviors With Shockingly Evil Explanations

In whose crazy world are #s 5 and 3 adorable?

As for the rest...so, it turns out that cats are not tiny hirsute human babies, they are meat-eating mammals who aren't particularly intimidating without some special effects, aren't particularly big enough to get by in the big old world without some assistance from bigger mammals, and therefore try to ingratiate themselves with and manipulate the bigger mammals since they're too puny to bully them? I remain unshocked.

Seattle is TOO COLD. 22 degrees? WTF?

Studies also show that the chances of inheriting curly hair is around 90 per cent.

From the curly gene link. Do they mean if both parents have curly hair? Because I'm feeling REALLY CHEATED right now.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I have some socks with poinsettias on them. I use to have a sweatshirt with Christmasy bears on it, but that's long since been retired. Mostly I express my Yuletide spirit through a bit of jewelry--a holiday stocking pin or earrings made like wee wreathes.

I have a blue, long-sleeved t-shirt with some snowflakes on it, but that's more winter-season than holiday-centric.

I lasted 30 minutes at the holiday party. Ate some bread very carefully, but got really sick of answering "Why aren't you eating?" So, done.

Ann, that's a ferret.

6 Adorable Cat Behaviors With Shockingly Evil Explanations

And for #4 -- just what is wrong with being claimed as a cat's property?

(Not to mention for #6 -- I meow back. When you have multiple cats, it helps to know a few dialects of feline.)

(Edited to add what I'm referring to.)

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Can everyone else who wears holiday-themed clothing please stand up so I can look at you funny? Also, please state which holidays you observe sartorially.

Lessee. I have an angel pin (made from recycled metal, natch) that I wear on my wool coat around Xmas. I'm not an angel person, but it resembles the infamous Angel "lobster" logo so it amuses me.

I have Xmas and Chanukkah socks. I have Halloween socks (multiple pairs).

I also have a Yarmaclaus that I got during the whole The OC Chismukkah thing. I usally wear it to decorate the Xmas tree, or sometimes when lighting Chanukkah candles.

Other than that, I will wear green on St. Paddy's Day if I remember.

I own no holiday sweaters, and I don't ever plan to own any.
