"So handsome and suave, unlike that schlub Jared. Criminy, what was I thinking?"

So when Dawn says, "You too..." she means Hugo is looking as beautiful as ever?

The people in the background in p. 1 are Purple People Eaters. (I suppose a good portion of the rest of you are mystified by this 20th century reference [sigh].)

Today's Boldface Haiku is titled

"Note Cards Left Behind By The Vice President After Recent Presser".

Ah, Great!
Great too.
Beautiful!
Thanks!
(Handsome suave.)

@Nance hahaha! Another BFH homerun!

Ah, NYC the coronavirus epicenter, full of happy, purple people. I wonder if Hugo plans on telling her about Blondie in Paris. If he does, the next thing we'll see is tearful Dawn talking to the magical burn victim.

KitKat said...

Nance, this is your best BFH ever, and that's saying a lot! Cue the fanfare!

Gina said...

@Nance -- Bravo!
@KitKat -- Thanks for the earworm!

What would really raise this whole thing to the level of art is if Hugo bought her an engagement ring at Jared's.

It's a good thing that I'm working from home. Otherwise my co-workers would be wondering why I am laughing out loud so much. Great comments everyone!!! .

"As beautiful as ever" isn't necessarily a compliment, unless the last time Hugo saw Dawn she was sporting mussed hair and that bloodshot, jet-lagged droop that comes with flying from west to east. Come to think of it, she probably was bloodshot of eye the last time she saw him from blubbering about "doing long distance". Personally I'm rooting for Jared, and if Dawn has any sense, she'll realize he's a way better catch than flighty salesman Hugo. Jared has a real job, and, given Dawn's penchant for jumping on a plane for a cross country flight at a moment's notice, she needs someone with a steady paycheck. Thank you, friends for your daily dose of sanity in this currently knock-kneed world!

Hugo: So great to see you!
Dawn: You Too!

Hugo: You look beautiful!
Dawn: You too!

Hugo: You're wearing the same clothes you had on when I left.
Dawn: You too!

Hugo: I'm sorry to have to say, I have found a new love.
Dawn: You too?

Nance: you reign!

Helen Clark: you too!

Who spends all that money on a trip to break up? Economics is certainly not Dawn's major.

Sheesh, Dawn. You don't need to stay in NY. You kept thought-ballooning that you needed to see him in person to gain clarity, so it's decision time. Unless you now need to fly back to California to gain clarity about Jared (who will be ... erm ... "ugly and uncouth"?). Pretty soon, your psychobabble need for, you know, will single-handedly keep at least one airline in business as you zoom back and forth, for all eternity, between coasts. Seeking clarity. You are awful.
