I pity the man that ever went through divorce proceedings with Jill.
Husband: Honey, I want a divorce.
Jill (sarcastic): Oh, goody.
Husband: I want full custody of the children.
Jill (sarcastic): Of course. They're so 'wonderful.'
Husband: Just sign the papers.
Jill (sarcastic): Ha Ha Ha Ha.
Today's Full Strip

Mmmm...cookies! I'll bet those are Nilla Wafers dating from the Carter administration.
Yes, the "Friar Tuck" hairstyle was the first thing I noticed this morning.
Probably not a good idea to highlight the top of a character's black hair, with a flesh tone.
You are always right on it, Wanders!
Did *Jill* suggest the hairstyle? Naughty Jill. Now I think I can see why Mary's twigging.
And I'll bet very soon (that is, within the next month of comic strips, which is fast-paced action in the world of Mary Worth), we'll get Jill's backstory. And Mary will tell us all a story. And that gives me goosebumps just thinking about it! :-)
Hold it. Adrian asks Jill to help her plan a wedding - indicating that she's a close friend, but she doesn't know anything about her and doesn't want to ask.
Is Adrian the least "personal" person in the world? Or in the Worthiverse? Amazing...
Now that she has applied the oatmeal from that bowl all over her head and shoulders, Adrian feels totally relaxed. It's one of the little tricks she picked up in her correspondence med school course, "Fun with Food".
@Phoebes — Here's how that conversation went down:
Adrian: "Hey Jill, did you know I'm getting married?"
Jill: "Ha ha ha ha."
A: "Do you want to help me plan the wedding?"
J: "That would be GREAT, 'cause I have SO much experience (eye roll)."
A: Gee, thanks! I'll see you at the dress shop!
@Toots: I saw the cookie bowl, too, and wonder if Mary has ever put anything OTHER than cookies in it. Dog food, salmon squares...those cookies look pretty jammed in there too.
Adrian continues: Jill's personal life isn't really about me at all... so, like, what do I care?
"Mary, you seem obssessed. who is this Jill person you keep talking about?!"
Mmmm...frosting epaulettes.
I agree! Jill is being ridiculous; I wonder what's going on with her...And perhaps, Adrian, since Jill is pretty much sabatoging your wedding, it IS your place to ask what's wrong!
@Emmy-Jill? Sabatoging the wedding? What do you mean?
In Adrian's defense, she's a doctor (cue the laughter), and they're not always known for their people skills, so not knowing anything about "good friends" probably makes sense.
So...Adrian is going to let the guy, er...woman plan her wedding and she has no idea if he, I mean, she has ever been married? Yet another display of Adrian's excellent judgment.
Sadly, at Mountview, the morgue is filling up. Dr Corey has not been doing her job.
@Chester: no, the morgue is near empty, because Dr Adrian "I'm too dippy to work full time and plan a wedding" has NOT been on the job! Seriously, would *you* entrust her with your health care given what we've seen of her judgment already??!!
Mind you, the paperwork is very disorganised, because *Jill* hasn't been doing *her* job. And several houses in Santa Royale have burnt to the ground, because Scott has been busy looking at stationery (in very grim looking stores).
