Cat Weekend


We're supposed to go to a cocktail party tomorrow night but it is way the hoo ha up north and suddenly I'm thinking, not so much.

Rather, with the concurrence of The Family, I am hoping to declare a Cat Weekend. A Cat Weekend is one where we don't go anywhere (except church), we don't have anyone over (except maybe The Neighbor, especially if there is a new "Iron Chef America" Sunday night) and we just lie around like cats.

The need for a Cat Weekend occurs when there have been too many weekends in a row with too many obligations. We rarely have an obligation that isn't fun or meaningful but no matter how good the cause or entertaining the event, one can only take so much. Cat Weekend is a time for comfort food (sloppy joes tonight, The Child's chicken nuggets tomorrow). It is about reading, gaming, napping, sleeping in, watching movies and just generally not doing anything that isn't lazy, leisurely or lacksidaisical.

I do not think I will have any trouble selling this concept to the group.
