Buy the new book, "Beaucoup Arlo & Janis!"Today's "Arlo & Janis!"
I know it’s Friday, but I’m going to begin a little sequence of cartoons from 2002 and run it through the weekend. There is, near the end, a bit of a surprise pay-off for followers of this blog. Janis was going through yet another weird-hair iteration, you’ll notice. Speaking of the weekend, it’s the final one before Christmas in case you didn’t know. They’re forecasting the warmest Christmas Day on record here and just about everywhere in the U.S. east of the Rocky Mountains. Long-term aspects aside, I’m about ready for a milder winter myself. The past two or three might not have been brutal, but they set in early, seldom moderated and stayed late.

    GR6: I’m amazed at the sheer number of young ladies who actually look good in that outfit. The one con I went to had too many who stuffed themselves into outfits that were much too small.

    HALLELUJAH! The box has arrived! When the MBH retires this evening, I will open it and check out the contents…may even wrap a few then.
    The address label was perfectly correct and in perfect shape; not even a smudge. Haven’t a clue why it was retained in Chicago for those 4 days….

    Marie is home from the hospital! Yay! If they tried to keep her another day, I would be linking you to the live news footage of her break out. She was going home today NO MATTER WHAT! The infection is under control, and no MRSA. She still has to keep her foot elevated, so she is unhappy with that, but, being home is fine enough compensation.

    Something has set my allergies off something terrible. Hopefully the allergy medicine kicks in, and I get some sleep. Back to the grind. Who knows what awaits me there. Off to bed, 4am comes awful early.
