Ever have a coworker stop by your cube to shoot the breeze and then they just never leave? Even when you have tons of work to do, they’re just right there, in your face?

These two offenders simply will not get out of my office!

How this happened: Luces always jumps up on my desk while I’m here studying, I think it’s because she likes the warmth emitting from my Pier 1 “heat lamp.” Linus normally chills out right under my chair. This gets a bit aggravating because literally he will be RIGHT UNDER the chair, getting in the way every time I push out to get up and get more tea, or use the bathroom, etc. So today I finally just picked him up and put him square on my lap while doing some review notes.

Surprisingly, it was pretty cozy for all- and he made for a rather nice warm little lap blanket!
