Sarah sent me a package. It contained a box of girl scout cookies (which shall remain unopened until Easter), a book light, and (best of all) a Snuggie! Here I am, wearing it in my lab.
Over Christmas, I was drawn in by the infomercials for the snuggie. See, it's a blanket that has sleeves. How brilliant is that? And the people in the infomercials seem so happy! They can read and knit and everything - but their arms don't get cold.
Here, I'll show you:
Her arms look really warm, don't you think? Anyway, I think that of all the packages I've ever gotten in the lab, this one has inspired the most jealousy. And amusement.
And, since I've come down with Tracey's cold, the snuggie will be particularly useful during my convalescence. My plan is to go home after my meeting this afternoon and hand around drinking hot tea in my snuggie.
Thanks, Sarah! It's an awesome present.

since i get a lot of grief about my "capes" already, i may have to pass on acquiring a snuggly of my own. but it reminds me of this blanket with snaps a girl found in high school and she would run around the theatre in it like a muppet. hilarious.
The fact that you saw this snuggie and didn't immediately think of the smell of sweaty polyester just demonstrates that you and I are different in that way.
I'm still alive! I'm sorry you caught my cold. :( I miss you. I'll send you pictures soon!
Emily,
I just saw your blog. I wear my snuggie often too...people I think bash the snuggie because they are jealous. I heard a recent news story about how people were sueing the snuggie company, claiming that they had invented a blanket with sleeves long ago. I'm glad you like it, and the free book light :)

La question la plus importante selon moi est, bien sûr, quelle reponse est-ce que tu as supprimé? C'est dommage car je sais qu'elle serait être interressant!
Sorry, Q. Just spam. So far no actual people have made any controversial comments about the snuggie.
