I found my smudge phantom. Did you know that cats are greasy? :eek: 😕 Yes. It’s true.

How did I not know this? Hey, it’s not my cat, OK? Yes, it’s been living with me for a few years - what’s your point? This is the first time that she’s had occasion to nestle down on my reading glasses.

As I’ve explained once in [another thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=688432), the cat likes to sit in the box I use for a pillow that I use for my mouse (the one by the HDTV). I’m not sure why this hasn’t happened before although it probably did I just didn’t notice since my glasses are probably always smudged.

What’s weird is that shes always cleaning herself - well, you know, if shes awake that is. 😕
