Mary Worth 2665

I'm really happy for Dawn. It looks like she has found true love at last! All signs point to yes! I'm equally happy for Ned, whose bitter divorce left him emotionally devastated. But now an attractive young coed has looked deep into his soul and revived his heart like no medical professional ever could.

Also, happy for Jared, who dodged a bullet.

I wonder what happened to Office Manager Sue, who left and never returned. I guess Dr. Ned didn't enjoy working with her as much as he does with Dawn. Sheesh!

Today's Boldface Haiku is titled "It's Like A Pink, Glittery, Marshmallowy Grindstone, Really".

Good spirits. Enjoy!
Yes! (You do!)
(Sheesh!)

Like KitKat, I had been wondering what happened to Sue and was also hoping to hear more about Avery's situation. I think the name was Avery. Also, in a medical office, would a doctor be the person who would suddenly decide a mass mailing needed to go out?

Dr. Dreamy is getting more smarmy and oleaginous by the day. But it's worked. The hook has been set, and now all he has to do is reel her in.

I think Jared speaks for all of us.

Jared does NOT remind me of Dave.

Perhaps Mary is on the mass mailing list to receive info! Let the meddling begin.

Scottie McW, love "oleaginous"!! Defined as "exaggeratedly and distastefully complimentary; obsequious", it applies to just about any male character with an agenda in the Worthiverse.. It's the poor saps like Jared who get the lines that translate into vernacular.

Panel Two: Panel of the Year. It says so much in one word.

Dave in Parma said...

You beat me to it Toytuba. I second the nomination. Never has a panel captured a year so effectively.

I think Medical Assistant Jared is the lost son of the late, great Aldo Kerast. I sense a stalking situation coming on and like Aldo's case, it won't end well. SHEESH!

I don't know a single doctor who handles or even understands the complexities of all the different insurance plans. In fact, almost every medical practice where I live is owned by either Cleveland Clinic or University Hospitals, who handle all the billing and insurance. But Santa Royale is firmly rooted in the 1950s, where some patients still pay with a live chicken and a basket of tomatoes.

Saturday

1. LOL to @fauxprof's comment above. Yes, this is Santa Royale, so Marcus Welby, M.D., is probably the chief of Medical Practice.

2. This being Santa Royale, "employer privileges" include a boss hitting on a naive employee.

3. If Dawn "looks older" than she is,* I'd love to see June's take on a college student. Would that be pastel-colored hair that's shaved on one side of the head and long on the other, many tattoos, Daisy Dukes, and flip-flops?

*We all know that Dawn really is older - she's been slogging away at the U. of S.R. for about sixteen years without even declaring a major, much less nearing graduation. So she's mid-30s at least.

Does anyone else remember back to when Dawn Weston was Wilbur Weston's pudgy and annoying daughter? The next day after being a pudgy miniature Wilbur Weston, she shows up at the Charterstone pool rocking a bikini, drawn like a diva, adulting, so to speak. I sent an email to the author of Mary Worth at the time, Allen Saunders, asking how Dawn had transformed from some dumpy little brat into the bikini clad diva overnight. He blamed the artwork which had changed Dawn too fast, leaving the plot to catch up. I wish Dawn would morph back to her fat brat days. At least she wasn't unlucky in love back then...

Nice to see on Sunday that as Dawn keeps adulting and honing her customer service experience for her future career as a Starbucks barista (deftly able to handle complaints on the high costs) that Dr. Ned is still teening. And Jared lurking.

Sandi Ego said...

Dr. Ned has just veered back into inappropriate territory. Ewww. Jared is going to be the hero, isn't he? I'm picturing it all going down at Harbor on The Dock, a dream date gone seriously awry. Jared's lurking will be a good thing. Of course, those kids will be looking for new jobs the next day.

"He was just grumpy about his medication cost. He said he'll have to choose between paying for his medication or buying food, ha ha ha! What a crabby patient! It's a good thing I'm naturally sympathetic, ha ha!"
