Christmas is about WARM feet…

This probably says a lot about me, but one of the most memorable Christmas gifts I ever received as a semi-adult (college student) was a nice pair of house slippers.

Wolf house slippers!  Kind of looked like these…

My mom and dad thought I needed these.  They were great.  When you squeezed the fuzzy ear the wolf would howl. Needless to say, these treasures went off to college with me, too.  In my dorm, it was difficult finding enough small game and rodents to keep them fed; but somehow I found a way.

I think this was the same Christmas (of the Wolf) that my mom bought me a Mad-Bomber fur-lined cap.  I was ready for the Alaskan wild…

Now look it me.  A true Yeti of the Himalayan region.

Addendum: Courtesy of my Mom, here’s a picture of the slippers and hat (circa 1994!)  Thanks, ma…
