IT SNOWED!
Nope, that's not right. Sounds way too cheery to me.
IT SNOWED.
Better, but uh...
Gosh darn it, woke up this mornin' to the white stuff. 'Cause it snowed.
Yeah, that's about right.
MOUSES!
You heard it right here, folks. You heard it right here! Last night, it snowed.
MOUSES!
Now it wasn't a lot of snow, mind you. In fact, it wasn't very much, at all. But it was most definitely snow.
And what's more...
It was cold.
Felt it on my paws when I stepped outside, and everythin'.
MOUSES!
But the sun was shinin' and made the snow look all sparkly and whatnot. And to tell you the truth, it did look kinda nice.
Kinda.
But not really.
'Cause it was cold.
I, SEVILLE THE CAT, know all about the illusion of warmth when the sun is shinin' through the windows and the sunlight feels all warm on your furs but really and truly...
Really and truly...
Really and truly, when you step outside 'cause it's looks all pretty and stuff, it's absolutely bloomin' COLD.
MOUSES!
Okay, so it was just barely below zero, which for Canada really isn't all that cold.
IN THE MIDST OF WINTER.
But today is only December 1st!
Oh sure, today might very well be the first day of the meteorological winter, but it isn't the astrological winter 'til December 21st!
And what's more to the point, if it's cold and snowin' today, on December FIRST!!!, just how cold and snowy is it gonna get in January and February when winter has actually settled in and made itself at home, and...
What? What's that, Peepers? What's that you're babblin' on about now?
Oh.
Hmmm...
Okay, so APPARENTLY, whilst I was workin' on this blog post, it warmed up a tad and the snow has melted and now it's pretty much all gone.
Hmmm....
Well that's not much of a headline now, is it. In fact, it's really kinda borin'. Borin' enough to make a cat like me wanna make somethin' up that's a little more interestin'. SOMETHIN' PEEPS MIGHT ACTUALLY WANNA READ.
Hmmm...
Methinks it's time to dig through Peepers' dirty laundry basket and see if I can find a headline in there.
'Cause you know what they say: Airin' dirty laundry is VERY interestin', for sure.
AS LONG AS IT'S NOT YOUR OWN.
Dirty laundry, that is.
MOUSES!
So stay tuned for future blog posts 'bout Peepers' dirty laundry. And I'm not talking 'bout how to take out grass and blueberry juice stains.
Although truth be told, that could be kinda useful. Some peeps might wanna read about that.
Oh my mouses! PEEPERS might wanna read about that, too! Shovelling snow - not that she had to shovel today - might not get her clothes all mucked up, but an afternoon of diggin' in the dirt sure does.
'Cause take it from this kitty: There's more than one kinda dirty laundry 'round here.
Somethin' more interestin' than snow.
Time to go find me some interestin' dirt.
MOUSES!
Hey Seville, the best kind of snow is the gone kind!
ReplyDeleteI so totally agree, my dear friend. TOTALLY! Unfortunately, it has gone and snowed again. Can't wait for it all to be gone.
DeleteI like snow, but it is too early for it.
ReplyDeleteWay, way, WAY TOO EARLY, I think. And you know what? It went and snowed again. Even more, this time! And this stuff hasn't melted yet. MOUSES!
DeleteWe haven't gotten any snow here yet, Sivvers, but it's definitely been cold. Good luck with your dirty laundry finding expedition. We hope it yield some excellent dirt! XO
ReplyDeleteHaven't found anythin' yet but I'm gonna keep on lookin'. I just KNOW there's dirt in that laundry to be found. MOUSES!
DeleteI am not too crazy about the snow either. It is cold on tne feet and bottom if I choose to sit ;) So far I have not ventured outside. I do like the warmth of indoors ;)

And the worst - absolute WORST! - is when it gets on your tummy furs. I remember poor Anderson and Rushton havin' to deal with that. It would get on their furs and stick in clumps. Super hard for 'em to get off. purrs
DeleteSparkly snow is pretty; would rather look at a postcard of it than live it, however, Seville...no?
ReplyDeleteYeah, 'cause picture perfect is great for lookin' but not so great when it makes you feel cold. PURRS
DeleteWe had a lot of snow here, and its NOT gone, been sticking around since last Thursday night. We pups don't much like it either.
ReplyDeleteWhat you need is a headline grabber, like 'Snow stolen from lawn!' Anything like that seems to sell the papers these days. that and dirty money and laundry or laundering dirty money. . . .
