Snuggie as a Buggie in a Ruggie

A while back Brent asked me what I thought of the Snuggies.  I told them that I thought that they were ridiculous and not to even think about getting me one for Christmas.  Well, luckily my husband doesn't listen to EVERYTHING I tell him because the other day he gave me an early Christmas present.  A Snuggie!!

I'm one of those people that is cold a lot.  So I love blankets and my onesie PJ's and carry a portable heater around with me to whatever room I'm in.  One thing that's always annoyed me about blankets is how warm you get in them and then when you need something you let all the warm air out and get cold again!  At night when we're watching TV I'm snacking on something.  And it's soooo annoying that all that warm air goes out and my already cold body has to make more warm air.  But along came the Snuggie!!!  Now at night I can snack until my heart's content and not have my upper half freezing and rethawing throughout the evening. 

Not only are Snuggies warm and snuggly, they also make you feel like you are many different things when you wear them.

The very first time I put on my Snuggie I felt like Mickey and the Sorcerer's Apprentice. 

You can also tuck your arms into the sleeves and flail them around like those creepy air dancers they have outside of car dealerships and Sno Cone stands.

If you pull your Snuggie up so your elbow is showing you feel like you have a serious case of Lunch Lady Arms.

Brent tried on my Snuggie last night and the first thing he did was look in the mirror and start chanting like this guy might do.

Not only does my Snuggie bring joy and warmth to me, it also brings it to my puppies as well!  As soon as I put it on and sat in the Love Sac they both jumped up to join me!

Maybe it was just their way of showing that they are hoping that Santa leaves one of these in their stocking this Christmas.

Well I knew that Sam would love the Snuggie, so I bought one and put it away for a surprise Christmas gift. Then the other day she exclaims, "I want a Snuggie, and I'm buying one on Black Friday!" That's what I get for being an efficient shopper. I had to give it to her early.
