I wondered where the smell was coming from - I blamed the cats

Obviously, datadiction can cause serious social problems...

Hey Wordmeister - what's your word for today or has the cat got your mouse

I swear it was the cats, if not than it's definitely my datadiction.

I lost my mouse. It's on my desk somewhere, but I can't seem find it... Maybe the cat did eat it.
