Smudge Blesses the Travel Shirts
Posted on March 7, 2019 Posted by John Scalzi 19 Comments
“Oh, you’re going away? Here, let me make sure you have enough cat hair for the duration.” Such a giving kitten, Smudge is.
In other news, I’m off for another JoCo Cruise, so don’t expect to see too much here in the next week or so, since I don’t anticipate having a whole lot of Internet connectivity, and even less interest in knowing what’s going on in the outside world. Don’t worry about the cats, we have a full-time house sitter, who understands their primary role is to let cats in and out of the house.
If I don’t post again for a while, please enjoy your week (and change). I’ll be back soon enough with tales of the Caribbean, I’m sure.
Bon voyage!
Smudge merely knows one of his prime duties. Have a lovely voyage.
Have fun, John. Just remember a boat can go on a ship, but a ship can’t go on a boat.
“Of course I’m blessing the shirts! Who knows what perils you may face out there – krakens, Twilight fans, deadites! We have to keep you *safe, monkey!”
Forget work, internet, etc. and have a great trip!
Be safe and have a wonderful, relaxing, restorative vacation! (And thank you, Master Smudge, for sending your person off on vacation with appropriately blessed garments – surely that will keep him safe so he will return and give you fishes.)
Enjoy your trip! Snuggle the kitties before you go and have a wonderful, relaxing holiday from the world. We look forward to your stories when you’re back!
I have that exact same pineapple shirt! I bought it from a Kohl’s by the side of a highway in rural Pennsylvania to wear to a wedding the next day. Delighted that we have similar taste in formal wear.
Smudge look very adolescent. Pretty soon he’ll be driving.
PRETTY
Sigh… SOME day we’ll make it on a JoCo cruise – for now we are hampered by the kids’ school vacation schedules. Have a wonderful trip!! (also, those shirts are excellent choices for cruisewear…)
@Colonel Snuggledorf: And the Cat said, “Lo, for I shall bless these shirts, that they may be a Sign to all who observe them, and He-of-the-opposable-thumbs shall surely return safely with many new fishes for me.”

siggy: "don't worry, captain hammer will save us"
Have fun and enjoy the weather!
My cat Murphy usually likes to pre-bless the inside of the suitcase before the clothing goes in. Different strokes, I guess.
did he get into the suitcase, too?

My lady had a fridge magnet that said said that no outfit was complete without a few cat hairs.
Wear them with pride. Those that are in the know are your friends. The rest are strangers with friendly smiles.
