Hey Dude! That's MY Snuggie

For those in my handful of readers who know my sister.. over at folksy musins, she has posted many times about the snuggie... the blanket with sleeves that all of us who have breath in our lungs covet with the power of 10,000 suns. Yes, the snuggie, the enormous fleece blanket with sleeves. It probably took all of $3.00 to make, and has a seam that is already coming out. But it is now available at Dollar General for $15.99

I was lucky enough to have one bestowed upon me this past weekend, by my ex husband's grandmother whom I have adopted as one of my own. She bestowed upon me, her last unopened snuggie. I was shocked, but grateful.

However, my son, Dervish, who is my first born. The one I turn to for help vacuuming, and taking out trash, he STOLE my snuggie. This gift bestowed on me, is now in the clutches of the 10 year old who thinks that Hostess cakes are a food group.

So, today, dear readers, weep! Weep for my brush with greatness cut too short, in that I have owned a snuggie, and lost it to someone younger and cuter than I. I guess I will have to settle for my slanket, and the Sham-azing!

*sigh*
