Thirteen Things reasons I’m taking a break from Thursday Thirteen
I’ve been struggling to keep up with the TTs for a few weeks so here are my reasons for taking a break from TT, fun though it is.

1. The Woman is working a lot on Thursdays which means I have to be up and about the house taking care of things while she is gone and I don’t have time to properly check out all my visitors and comment on their blogs.

2. I’ve done this for 13 weeks now and it’s getting a little routine. While I’m a cat and I love routine, routines should always include naps and TT should NEVER include a nap!

3. I’ve got to concentrate on traffic to the main website through the holidays, so that people can get my recommendations for gifts.

4. I’m lobbying the congress to get felines the right to vote and that takes up a lot of time.

5. Turkey has triptophan and you know how sleepy you can get after ingesting a lot of that. Really, I know that the humans think I *won’t* get a lot of that, but well, I’m a Siamese.

6. The holidays are coming and I have to be cute for company way too often.

7. It’s cold in the room where I have to type up the Thursday Thirteen.

8. Kukka-Maria is funnier than I am. While I have to keep my nose clean and can’t go our partying the way she does and I don’t hobnob with the stars, still, you’d think that I could come up with the occasional joke.

9. I’m a great believer in leaving people wanting more, rather than getting tired of me. Although for those die hards, I will still be blogging in general.

10. The human male is threatening to take over my Thursday Thirteen and type up 13 ways I resemble a pig. If he wants to do this, he’ll need to get his own blog.

11. Thursday Thirteen is getting so large, that I’m sure they’ll be scandals soon and well, as a future presidential candidate, I need to keep my nose clean.

12. I’ve changed my mind about doing Thursday Thirteen and well I’m cat. I’m allowed. As soon as I’ve made up mind not to, for sure, you know I’ll be back. For those who disbelieve, remember a cat at a door…

13. This is the thirteenth Thursday Thirteen and I figured that was a good number to break on.

  4. While your presence will definitely be missed because some of us notice these things, those are absolutely wonderful reasons. 😉 AND it’s better than just disappearing from the list entirely!

  6. Sorry to hear you’ll be taking a break from Thursday Thirteen, but I understand why. Those are all very good reasons for taking a break. You will be missed, Chey, and I look forward to your return.

  7. I completely understand–especially all the demands on you to be cute for the holidays. And you’ve been typing up these TTs (with paws, no less!) in a cold room for thirteen weeks? That’s going above and beyond.

  10. I’m a die hard!! Please do keep blogging because I love your whitty comments and I’m seriously thinking of joining your campaign for President. Do you think you could use me for anything?

  11. I understand, Chey, though I will miss you! It is hard for me to keep it up, too. Very difficult to come up with new list ideas. Come back soon!

  15. Oh, Chey! I hate to think my sorry attempt at humor is a reason for you to stop! I think a break is well-deserved (especially with your pro-feline-voting agenda), but please do not give it up completely!

    We need the intelligent and driven feline voice represented with TTs!

  19. I’m sorry to hear that you will be leaving us but I understand that you have a lot of important stuff going on. Good luck with your lobbying 🙂

  21. Hope to see you TT’ing again in future. Perhaps you could hold off on publishing your Christmas list until after I hide the laptop from my Blue Point Siamese and Burmese girls?
