Yes, it’s only the first day of the month, but it’s late and my brain has already gone to bed.
Also, this is exactly how I react to seeing myself in a mirror.
Yes, it’s early in the month but I can’t shake this horrible sense of blah. It’s getting colder, the threat of snow (followed by still more rain) is in the forecast, winter is weeks away, work is bearing down, everything feels like a big ball of unraveling string or some other dumb metaphor.
So yes, here is December’s amusing cat image, three days into the month. Enjoy!
Seriously, how could you possibly top the pose struck here?

EDIT, December 6, 2017: This is why I never link to external sites for images anymore. π
EDIT, June 12, 2020: I think I found the missing image. It is locally hosted now, for your enjoyment and edification.
