P365 Day 204: It's a Toasty Bear kind of day
I woke up this morning feeling like half of my head was on fire. The sinuses on the left half of my face feel as if a cat sat there all night. And who knows. Maybe one did.
But, hey, it's nothing a little Sudafed and Toasty Bear can't fix. Toasty Bear is so cool. I mean, right now he's not cool because I can pop him in the microwave and make him toasty!!! But he can be cool, too, if I opt to put him in the freezer.
He's my sick-day buddy. Always got a few strange looks from coworkers who saw me taking my teddy bear out of the microwave. After a while I quit explaining the phenom and just let them wonder.
Toasty Bear used to smell good — specifically, according to Sootheze, like "lavender, thyme, lemon balm, hyssop, orange peel, rosemary, eucalyptus, peppermint, and rose buds." Now he smells a little like lavender ... but mostly like my cat. And that's fine. My cat doesn't smell that bad.

Ha! If you put him in an office microwave too many times he'd smell like popcorn and old Mexican food!
So...what does your cat smell like?
Hmm ... what does Joe smell like? I don't know, a little dusty? Mostly she just smells like Toasty Bear. :D
If my coworkers caught me taking a stuffed bear out of the microwave they would probably think that after all I've been dealing with this year I finally snapped.
In which case I would just tell them the kids are going in next.
