Mary Worth 4161

They have almost as many things in common as Wilbur and Estelle did. Music, pets, and stress.

I get mentioning the piano, but maybe, just maybe, after that disastrous last date you shouldn't bring up singing? Just a thought.

Do you know that blues number, "Strong Mayonnaise (Has Been The Ruin Of Me)"?

KitKat said...

What a scintillating conversation! It began with an i’ll-fated Pomeranian, continued with a mention of green, tightly wound Steven, and now hits on ways to “destress.” This would be a perfect time for Jared Mylo to sit down at their table. He could tell Estelle about naked yoga and bond with Ed about their relationships with Mister Sulu and Odin.

Ed appears to be ambidextrous. Yesterday he held his glass in his right hand; today he’s speared a section of tripe with his left hand.

@KitKat: If Ed really wants to spear a section of tripe, he should aim for the dialog balloon.

Why did none of this painfully boring information come up during their first date? Did they arrange to meet at the karaoke bar and immediately after Ed sat down, Estelle jumped up onto the stage to belt out her first "I hate you Wilbur" song?

KitKat - Maybe that's what happened to the Pomeranian. Ed thought it would be a fun idea to see if he could perform an operation with his left hand. Bad idea.

If Estelle is so fond of singing why doesn't she join a choral group. It would turn singing into an actual hobby and get her out of Charterstone. Plus she might meet a charming baritone.

There should be a thought bubble of ed saying i wish the old cartoons where you sing along by following the bounceing ball were stil on would be excellent second date .

I don't care about this date. I want some Mr. Allora drama!

Steve said...

Agreed. Mr Allora hasn't bee seen in about 3 years

Allora: I am WFH, thanks for asking; in the meantime, thank you for wrangling your own trash to the dumpster. Professor Cameron has done a fine job of picking up nips and recycling them for 10 cents each- adds up fast, doesn’t it, Prof? Remember, Mrs. Worth gets 2 cents directly off the top, I get the next 5, and you can handle the rest of the math. Pet owners, please continue using the CatLat and the PuppyLoo, not the sidewalks in front of unit B.
