Wicked Cat of the East

Actually, Gus isn't really wicked, but during this latest cold snap he hasn't really left the heated tile floor in the bathroom. 

Remember the Wicked Witch of the East from The Wizard of Oz?  Well, here's a side-by-side comparison of the witch and my cat.

To prove that the bathroom vanity didn't fall on Gus' poor little head here's a snapshot of the furball waking from his slumber.

Stay warm, my friends.  The Cubs' pitchers and catchers report to Spring Training in just three more days.  Spring is right around the corner!
