When putting up the Christmas tree is like the WWF...

I put up the Christmas tree tonight. I love putting up the Christmas tree but putting up a tree with two cats is like a cage match in the WWF. I spent most of the time shooing Arnie and Brigette out of the way. I have a small tree and it took me about two hours to get it in an upright position. Once I lit it up, I went into the kitchen to wash tree goo off my hands. When I came back, Brigette was happily sitting at the top of the tree looking at me.

I didn't put the ornaments on it yet. I spent the next hour shooing and clapping at them and swearing a lot. Arnie finally gave up and went to sleep on the couch. Brigette has decided her new sleeping place is under the tree. I fully expect to find it all in a big heap when I wake up tomorrow morning.
