Sometimes all you need is a pot of tea and a good book to unwind after a long and stressful day. Not to mention sweatpants and fuzzy socks. The only thing that would make this any better would be if my boys (I have 2 cats, Binks and Milo) would come snuggle with me rather than giving me the cold shoulder for being gone all day. I leave them alone on this cold and rainy day so it’s only fair, right? Granted, I leave for work so I can afford their lavish and leisurely lifestyle. Anyone else have this issue or am I the only one with furbabies who can be punks?

Now if only I wasn’t too lazy to go open my new package of lighters so I can light a candle, that’s a sure fire way to lure my “pyro”-kitty to snuggle.

Proof in case you don’t believe me:

3 years later and Binks is still going strong in his fire-obsessed ways. (Picture from 2014 when I was in grad school)
