Today I enjoyed a mini-miracle: I found a lost pair of Christmas pajama pants.
I had been looking for these pants for several weeks, but to no avail. I had the top, but couldn’t locate the pajama bottoms. Finally, today I looked in a hamper that I had looked in at least twice before but really dug into the bottom of the hamper and “Ta-da!”, my pants were revealed.
These pants of Holiday Cheer are made of fleece and decorated with images of Rudolph and the Bumble. Most importantly, they are cozy. Very, very cozy.
Recently at work (via an online meeting, of course) we were talking about what makes us feel cozy. (Yes, an intentionally Safe-for-Work conversation). Fleece definitely tops the list for me. One of my favorite things in the world is the feel of wearing a new, not-yet-washed sweatshirt. (Hey, I’m wearing one of those now and it’s ALSO Christmas-themed. The design on it is a super cool Charlie Brown/Doctor Who mashup–high quality Geekdom).
Bourbon also makes me feel very cozy, but I opted to go with fleece (my fleece tights, specifically) as my answer for the work discussion. Talking about bourbon isn’t necessarily unsafe for work but probably ill-advised.
I think the pets will also be happy I discovered my Rudolph/Bumble pants as evidenced by these photos I found of both Pepper and StanLee cuddling with me. Now THAT’S cozy.
Of course they were experiencing the wonder of my Christmas pants separately. Maybe someday we can all cuddle and be cozy together. Now THAT would be a Christmas Miracle.
