Everyone loves that moment when the recovering, ex-con son of the bride makes a toast. It's never awkward.

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.

Yes, Tommy was promoted, and Brandy was overlooked once again. It's difficult being a sometimes-Black woman in the workplace.

For anyone who worried that you might not get to spend Christmas with Brandy and Tommy, you were wrong.

Tommy is the moth. Mary is the butterfly.

Are you as excited for Christmas as I am? The Charterstone Jukebox has switched over to our traditional "A Charterstone Christmas" playlist, and I hope you enjoy it! But the biggest thrill of all will come on December 25th -- the Worthy Award nominees will be announced!

I also want to thank Steve and Margaret who both got their bribes in early this year! Thank you - you were very generous.

"Your tree is lovely, Mary, but you should see the trees I can make when I'm sober!"

Photo credit: Louise! Thank you so much.

I can't help but wonder about the person who built this...

There's more to tell? What more could you possibly have to say? You and Brandy got back together. Essentially, you are exactly where you were six months ago, so what else is there to say, unless you need to brag about your olive oil Christmas tree.

There's nothing Tommy enjoys more than a little smoked salmon appetizer before sitting down to a cold bowl of gazpacho. He's just classy that way.

"Thank you, Tommy. And it's so beautifully wrapped. But just like you, it's what's on the inside that matters."

Why does everthing have to be a competition with these two?

"I've been trying to impress you by stacking bottles in the shape of a Christmas tree, singing Simon and Garfunkle songs, feeling sorry for myself, and eating banana bread with Mary Worth. What have you been up to lately?"

Part of me agrees with Tommy, that I can't wait to see what the future holds for them so that we can somehow break free of this infinite time loop we are stuck in. On the other hand, it means actually seeing what the future holds for them, and I'm just not that interested.

Symmetrical bottle stacking... just like the Philadelphia mass turbulence of 1947.

So they're getting married? Order some onion rings! There's going to be a wedding!

When I read today's strip, I just smiled so wide, clapped my hands and said, "Oh my gosh! I love this comic strip." It was a completely sincere and organic moment. Did anyone else have a similar burst of elation when you read this today? I can't explain it. Probably caffeine from my Crystal Light energy drink.

She likes what she sees. I'm glad. Because I promise you, he will never cut his hair or change his shirt.

So, Tommy is very excited to take Brandy on a date again. Brandy will be eating for two, however.

"Do we need to talk like alien robots? Because I'm really good at that."

By successfully burrying himself in his work, he's completely forgotten his broken heart. It looks like someone may have a real future at Freda's!
