I had really cold feet but didn’t want a bath, so I’ve compromised by filling the bath a little, and soaking my feet whilst I sit on the edge. Also, I’ve got my laptop here with me. It’s on my lap. I put a towel underneath to protect it from any splashes. ---

I’m drinking delicious Peppermint Mocha Kahlua in my rich hot chocolate. I just opened a bag of pretzels because I burnt my bag of popcorn. It rained on me when I walked home today, but that’s ok. ---

> [@Cat\_Whisperer](#): > > My cat is just sitting there, staring off to the side, with her feet curled up under her. Heh!
