i'm being overwhelmed by cute

to start with, cookie is sleeping on top of my feet and dog 2 - known during times of headphone-chewing as lucifer and currently referred to as Smooshy Face - is sleeping on the pillow next to me. we decided not to have their fur trimmed when they went to the groomer last week, so when they got their bath this afternoon, cookie was so furry we ran out of dog shampoo halfway through his and resorted to using herbal essences 'tousle me softly' on him and Smooshy Face.

and to add to the cute, i'm listening to zooey deschanel's duet with will ferrel from elf, which always makes me think of the 'omg, santa' scene.

mostly, though my probable death by cute overload will be attributable to this:

puppy! tilting its head!

...remember when i only youtubed things like stephen colbert's white house press correspondents speech and midtown concert footage? i bet you miss those days, huh? i don't know why, but december's shaping up to be an 'aww, look at the widdle fuzzy [insert animal here]' month. what happened?

edit: i found another one. look how cute it is!

edit again: this is the last one, it's just too D': not to include
