15 Merwins 'Til Christmas

Again, not Merwin, but if we're talking about funny sleeping poses, Stella gets an A+ for dozing amidst her own destruction.

I suppose this isn't that odd, but I do love when all of his legs jumble together like this. Cute.

GASP! Not Merwin. Welcome to Merwin's mom's nutty Christmas madness, Jack. Jack also rests oddly. Jack is a spaniel, too. Hmm...

18 Merwins 'Til Christmas

We've officially moved from strange sleeping locations to strange resting poses. Is this yoga?

19 Merwins 'Til Christmas

A perfectly normal place to sleep but a perfectly abnormal head position.

And again. Crushed between a wall and chair legs. So cozy. 

21 Merwins 'Til Christmas

Yes, we all love to sleep with our ears crushed against furniture legs.

22 Merwins 'Til Christmas

I mean, what is this!? Of all the places, why here? Why like this?

23 Merwins 'Til Christmas

This dog is KING of sleeping in strange places. I will prove this to you over the next few days.

I know it's absurd, I know I'm a freak, but yes the Merwin Christmas Countdown is happening again this December. It's the 5th anniversary of ridiculousness and it's not like I've slowed down photographing the little rat so that's that. I'm not going to justify it or try to rationalize it (obviously there is no logical explanation) so I'm just going to do it and enjoy it. If you want to enjoy it, go for it. If you think I should be institutionalized, you're not alone and you can continue to roll your eyes like you probably already do. Besides, if you're actually reading this blog, you know me well enough to understand that my obsessions with dogs and Christmas are too legit to quit. Happy Christmas Countdown-ing!!!

You're seriously doing this thing again? Seriously?
