Snug as a Bug

It’s been cold and rainy here. That’s no real surprise. It is Seattle in the fall/winter/spring. My office has been very cold too. We’ve been typing with frozen fingers. I even brought in a space heater and my coworkers take turns standing in front of it to warm up as they pass my desk. I’ve contemplated starting a fire when I get home, but home is nice and warm. Plus I have a cozy Lion to snuggle up next to.

We snuggled a lot last night. Lion even asked if something was wrong because we were snuggling so much. We used to do it more often and for longer periods of time. In the past I’d stop because it hurt my neck to look back over my shoulder at the TV. Sometimes it still does. Other times, I’m in pain in other areas. And Lion gets itchy so he has to move. I guess the planets just aligned correctly last night so we could snuggle longer.

I’m not sure why I wanted to snuggle so much. I’m also not sure why Lion thought there might be something wrong. What did he think might be wrong? He wasn’t sure. Me either. Maybe snuggling just works better some times than others. I mean, I love to do it any time, but it’s not always comfortable to do it. Maybe, since it’s rainy and yucky outside, it’s the perfect time of year to snuggle. If that’s the case, then we should be in for at least six months of snuggling.

Lion still has a sore spot on Mr. Weenie. Well, it’s near the base ring and it’s actually more sensitive than sore. But I don’t really want to aggravate it by playing. We’ll let it heal and then we can have fun. Lion has been wild since Tuesday night when he realized he was sore. He may be healed enough to have the cage back on but I’d rather be safe than sorry. I’m sure he’ll let me know when he’s ready to play. He’s very good about letting me know about the Lion weather forecast.
