SOMEONE ATTACKED MY THOR!

My Mighty Avenger Battle Hammer Action Figure Thor has been assaulted. I'm devastated. Not only is he such a great Avenger, he played it cool when I photoshopped MC Hammer pants on him. (back story: I had wondered if he'd ever yelled, "Hammertime!" before breaking into dance.)

Anyway, my mighty Thor had been minding his own business, protecting his little Asgard outpost also known as the corner of my desk.

Exhibit A
He'd looked fierce, with an intensity in his eye that rivaled Sheldon Cooper in a chess battle to the death. He'd also had not one, but two weapons of destruction. I'd thought no one would dare provoke such a powerful defender.

I was wrong.

This morning I walked into my office only to find I had chanced upon a crime scene. My body shook. There lay my Thor, face-down. In one hand he held his hammer. The other hand? EMPTY.

Exhibit B
It took a while for me to overcome the shock of the carnage. Luckily, the only damage was to Thor's ego. But who would take his sword accessory, a weapon which "holds an extra advantage -- it becomes a battle hammer for crushing his foes"? (At least that's what Amazon says.)

After a few minutes of investigation I found the sword behind the couch. I also found a clump of cat hair. Gasp! Our fluffy feline friend, Cinnamon, proved himself to be an evil-doer!

Exhibit C
And now I'm scared. What could our cat want with special sword that turns into a hammer? He must have an evil plan. What it is, I do not know but from now on I'm sleeping with one eye open.

Have a clue what it could be?

Naughty Cinnamon...LOL. I hope that Thor has made a full recovery after his traumatic ordeal. Cats are so funny about the stuff they steal...my best friend's cats always manage to steal at least one or two of my makeup brushes every time I go to Chicago for a visit. What on earth attracts them to a brush? Loved this post; right up my alley.

Makeup brushes? Well, they're furry. That might be part of the attraction. Like you said, you never know with cats. They're silly creatures with an eye for the absurb -- kind of like us! ;)

I bet he rubbed up against Thor (because Thor is so lovable) and the sword got stuck in his fur. Or an evil plan. One or the other.

Buy yourself a new candle <3

Definitely sn evil plan. He's had his eyes on the sword ever since I put it back. And that candle is from a trip to Cancun we took over 20 years ago. Guess it's looking its age!

Cinnamon is just doing his share to reduce the number of deadly weapons in the air. It's obvious which side of the gun control debate he's on.

Tee hee! You might be right. That would certainly be better than a plan to kill us all. :)

Perhaps Thor didnt like the cat and saw an opportunity to set him up? I mean really...can you trust a guy who carries a hammer and sword around?

How dastardly! You might be on to something!

You should watch out, cats are notoriously tricky. While you are busy wondering about the hammer, he is likely taking notes on how long it took to get you behind the couch. He could be training you and take other things back there in the future, knowing you will look.....and then one day, you will go behind the couch, and nobody will ever hear from you again. Watch Out !

NOOOOOOOO! I heard stabby sounds from Psycho while I was reading your comment. Now I'm afraid...so afraid...

When was the last time you saw the cat? Thor may have attacked cinnamon in a jealous rage then pretended he was injured and left evidence behind for you to find. That clump of hair looks as if it was deliberately placed to me. Check your cupboards, cinnamon could be bound and gaged for days....... Thor is a suspect, don't let him out of your sight ha ha ha ha

OMG. I never thought of that. How devious! I'll make sure to keep my eyes on Thor, too. Perhaps he's sick of guarding my desk and is lashing out at the world. Hope he doesn't decide to use his hammer.
