The pitcher (tea pot?) on Mary's weirdo square coffee table is from the Charlie Brown collection.
Mary: You watch your tone, Missy, or I'll whip out some Jung on you. Now give the Doctor a call. What else are you going to do, crawl into a box of wine?
Ok, so I am new to this site, but was my comment really removed because I used the term "sleep with"? Is there some other euphemism that would be ok? "go all the way" hardly seems more gentle. Maybe it was using the word "old" in the same sentence as "Mary".
One tries to be respectful, but really...with all the references to alcoholism...Oh well, love the blog anyway.
Anon... we keep it pretty G rated around here. References to Mike's and Jenna's sex life, when clearly no one ever has sex in this strip, cross the line.
The Condo Board is pretty strict about these things. But since they're pretty much soused all the time, jokes about Jenna's alcoholism are considered hilarious.
Jenna's ponytail is shape-shifting again. Yesterday it morphed into some kind of weirdo lobster claw. Today it goes from Seabiscuit in panel one to My Little Pony in panel two.
Yup, excellent depiction of Jenna McScrunchie's ponytail. And speaking of hair, check out the back of Mary's head. It's all the proof I need to convince me that she has retractable hair.
I'm so glad those oversized tables materialized today; it's been worrying me how much too large Jenna is for Mary's new standard-sized furniture. The other day, she had to scrunch her legs up so she'd fit between the sofa and the coffee table, and even then, she was sliding right off the sofa.
Jenna's never actually had a first date before Mike, has she? Perhaps where her giant race of people comes from, marriages are arranged, and she assumed that's what Mary had done for her and Mike. Now she just can't believe how badly Mary messed up!
I suspect Jenna angrily made giant wall charts showing each unreturned call and unanswered message from Mike. To go out with him again, well...that would ruin a perfectly good "mad", and negate all that hard work!!
EVERYTHING in Santa Royale is "risky"!!! When the entire population is highly dysfunctional, that's what ya' get! But hey--just keep trying Jenna. Remember how happy your mama will be that you're dating a doctor!
i like how mary never told jenna it was 3 weeks after the date that mike met his father and the geezer died the next day . plus has she told her his red hair is now pitch black ??? never trust old people
Fall for him... fall off the wagon... It's all the same thing.

"You may want..." Oh, that's rich. Notice we can't see Mary's googly hypno-eyes trained on Jenna. Girl ain't got a chance.

Give it a rest, Jenna! Does she stop random people on the street and blab on to them:
"...he didn't return my calls or emails and I was so...I rarely drink you know, but he didn't return my calls or emails..."
It's time for Ensign Terry Bryson to stop by and hit Jenna over her head with the concrete briefcase!

See him again? Are you mad, woman?!

Yes, Jenna, follow Mary's advice and see Mike again. How else will you know whether it's real love or not? Love means always being treated like crap.
"Yes Jenna, he was mentally abusive to you, but sometimes you have to keep going back to try to change him even if it means you repeatedly get hurt."
Yeah, great advice Mary.

I knew someday we'd find it, the Lonnie-Bonnie connection. "People have reasons." Well worth waiting for in my opinion.
