Socks Smith, Blogging Assistant

Here at Patenting My Re-Invention, we take blogging seriously. My assistant consults with me on almost all entries.


Although, when it comes to the actual writing and proofing, he frequently falls asleep on the job. I guess that's why he's the assistant and not the blogger.


If someday you see me and I'm walking around all stooped over, you'll know that I spent a little too much time with a cat neck warmer. From the moment I sit down he begins bugging me to let him get up here. I can't tell you how many hours he's spent sleeping across my shoulders while I knit, stitch and get my computer time in. He's so spoiled.
