"What about you, Ed? Are you more considerate and reliable than Wilbur Weston?"

Mary Worth 4142

Wilbur, your perpetual misery is going to have to wait. We've already had a preview that the next story is a Tommy/Brandy story. Cliffhangers will be abundant.

If you look closely, it appears Mary wore her purple dress. What a shock. Jeff is nowhere to be seen because he doesn't like wearing purple.

Mary Worth 4031

Including your awful father. Remember, the person you never want to be like? The one who gives you Worthy-Award-worthy nightmares? And a 65-year-old widow, and Cathy who you hardly ever see. What a wonderful support system you have.

If you haven't had time recently to dance to the Charterstone Jukebox, there's a party today at the clubhouse, and you're invited!

Mary Worth 4027

Oh, Dawn... that's what you said before you met Jared, and Hugo, and Dr. Fletcher, and Professor Harlan, and Jim, and Drew, and Dave.

Mary Worth 4026

When you say, "Sit this one out..." what are you referring to? Currently, you are playing the game alone by default, not by choice. Do you mean "sit the next one out"? Because I call foul; we all know you are lying and will instantly fall in love with the next male you meet.

Mary Worth 4025

I can certainly see why Dawn enjoys hanging out with Mary so much. She can put you to sleep better than benzodiazepines. Of course, you're going to need some opioids for the pain. Tommy Beedie has got you covered.

Mary Worth 4024

Careful, Dawn. You can't start bantering phrases like "years ago" about without destroying the illusion that you are 20. If you're 20 in 2022, then that means you were 15 when you dated the married Dr. Fletcher years ago in 2017. Sleazy, indeed.

Mary Worth 4023

And to Wanders' life. Don't forget how much you have both contributed to MY life. Also, where'd that lemonade Mary is holding come from? Lemonade with quiche? Oh, wait! It's recycling day.

Mary Worth 4022

Dawn, ten years ago, you forced One-Armed Jim to remain friends, and you haven't thought of him since. Something tells me you're going to survive just fine.

Peace Doves: "Our work is done here. Back to Switzerland."

Mary Worth 4019

"It looks succulent, Mary." Ha ha ha ha! Get it? She has succulents in her window box? Just a little word play.

Mary Worth 4018

"It turns out that I hate Cathy now. But I don't want her to think there's bad blood between us. What should I do? Do you have any muffins?"

I'm late to thank a few recent donors: Jana H., Judy F., and Jessica Z. Thank you very much for your support! And thank you to everyone who made recent donations celebrating our 4,000th post! I was really so very grateful for such generosity.

It's easy to be cynical about the emotional pain of a fictional character, but break ups are real, and they hurt. In our modern world, we are so afraid of feeling pain that we often choose to numb ourselves with drugs, alcohol, and meaningless sex. "Mary Worth and Me," however, embraces the pain. We accept it. We acknowledge it. And then we viscerate it. And we spread it all over our bodies in all its stenchy gore, and then we howl to the moon and dance the bw'hama ceremonial dance until dawn. Dawn? Did I say Dawn? Whaaaaaaaahhhhhhh!

And thank you, Carlye N. for your recent donation!!

Mary Worth 4007

I'm not crying, you're crying. No seriously, I'm not crying.

Mary Worth 4006

Oh, Jared, sweetheart, no. Don't ask that. It's just so wrong. This is called closure. Closure. Don't try to pry that door back open.

I want to add my sincere thanks to these recent generous donors to the Mary Worth 4000 campaign:

Peter Mullin
Vince Reddy

Mary Worth 4005

Dawn, you weren't the best, but you were the first. And that means something. I mean how many girls stuck around after Jared started talking incessently about Leia's copper bikini and his mother's naked yoga?

Mary Worth 4004

All those years ago? You mean five years ago? When you were in college? Which you still are.

A great big thank you to everyone who participated in the Mary Worth 4000 campaign yesterday! Much generosity was shown, and I am really touched.

Thank you to:

Eric M.
Brett S
Mary R. Y.

Cheryl J.
Mark F.
Jim S.

Thank you, one and all.

Mary Worth 4003

Bad blood? What are you talking about, Dawn? Is this some kind of threat?

There's no bad blood between Mary Worth and those who have donated to the Mary Worth 4000 Campaign, including our most recent donors:

John M.
Cheryl A.
Sarah A.

Many thanks to everyone who has made donations over the weekend!

Mary Worth 4002

No, you don't have to repeat your father's mistakes. Let me repeat, you don't have to repeat your father's mistakes. But you do have to repeat your entire conversation for anyone that may have missed something.

While Mary helps Dawn find clarity, let me thank those who have recently donated to the Mary Worth 4000 campaign! You have all been so generous:

Harold S.
Leslie S.
Julie C.
James W.
Charles P.
Candice W.
Stephen C.

Thanks everyone for your kind words and your generous support!
