And she’s still there! Mama GamZu seems to have forgotten that the big chair on the right is hers…?

Do any of you guys have this same experience?

(Also, can one of you come over and ask her to move? ?)
sure but we're going to have to talk fees and also injure compensation first! This includes psychological injure too (she called me a ...... and you're offering that whiskey??? if you look at the contract you'll see.....)
Oh did I forget to mention nothing is happening with out signed and notarized documents.

Maybe they're all trying to win attention back from the pipes. A local pipe smoking obsessive was reported by his wife to the local paper's letters to the editor, saying the pipe shop was guilty of alienation of affection. I heard him discussing this with the pipe shop owner, pleading that he had winnowed down his pipe collection to two hundred.

Muhamed is said to have discovered his cat sleeping on the arm of his coat, and instead of shooing the cat away, quietly cut off the arm of the coat and took his leave. So when I discover my cat in my big office chair with arms, I wheel them to the side and sit in another little wheeled desk chair without arms. Then my wife, who has several wifi devices comes in and borrows my computer. Shrug. I go use her computer. It's too complicated to explain.

I'm a creature of habit and like most people (I believe), have my own spot/seat on the couch in our family room.

My two year old has taken to sitting in my spot as of late. If I'm sitting in "her spot" (which is actually my spot), she says "no, mine" and grabs my hand to get me to move.

As a result, I'm considering marking my territory, but don't want to deal with the competing "stains" on the couch; after all, she is still in diapers and has no shame.
Maybe dad needs his own throne/recliner?
No one sits there but dad...

The beautiful dog sits wherever. You adjust ?
He is crafty. Sometimes he wants the chair just because he can curl up and watch TV or snooze, sometimes when he sees me coming he'll jump in the chair but keep watching because he's hoping I'll just go to the sofa and he can then leave the chair (in a flash) and jump on the sofa and promptly flop down on my outstretched legs! Last night he "faked me out" and I smiled and went and sat on the sofa but just sat there. He popped over and just sat there staring at me and then started giving me a few little strokes with an outstretched paw until . . . I swung the legs up on the sofa so he could lay down and be warm.

Gotta love 'em!

My smoking chair sits under a red maple tree in the front yard. Anyone sitting in it will immediately move if I come out the door with a pipe in hand.

Now, my recliner located in the den is another thing. If I'm not physically sitting in it (and sometime while I'm in it) my granddaughters who live close to us figure that is their chair to sit in.

My smoking chair is on the front patio and by 8:00 in the morning all my required paraphernalia has accumulated on the table in front of it. There are three other chairs available and no one in their right mind would sit where there is no room to even put a coffee cup.
