After a seemingly unending search for a very small mat to put in front of my patio doors, I purchased what I thought was a temporary fix - namely a really cheap half circle outdoor jute mat. While I loved the look of it, I felt it was inappropriate for indoor use.
Lo and freaking behold, it's become a completely indestructible cat scratching 'post', and try as she will, Annabelle can't destroy it in the least, AND SHE'S STOPPED TRYING TO KILL THE CLUB CHAIR I paid $500 to reupholster. Joy! Serendipity!
Also, of interest to no one.
I am lazy so I buy almost everything online, and today, I needed A PEN THAT WRITES and found a few I like on the Staples website (Bureau en Gros if you're in Quebec, and how in the world 'office wholesale' somehow translates to 'staples' I'll never know.).
I am in the process of ordering these items that I can't get at the store, and I decide to have it sent to my local Bureau en Gros because I actually like browsing through stationery stores, and I'm cheap so I figure I'll save on postage.
They want $15 to ship my order to my local Bureau en Gros store. Really?
Go home, Staples - you're drunk.
