For those of you who, like me, literally said out loud, “Whose Estelle?” this morning, she’s the older but stunningly attractive widow who went online to meet a man. After dating seven or eight losers and getting taken for ten grand by a scam artist, her expectations and self-esteem were so low that when Wilbur came along, he actually looked pretty good. She invited him over to sing the Pina Colada song.

The winner of tonight's mystery meat contest is Jeffrey Corbin who guessed "some kind of beef."

“You’ll get other chances, Mary. Dad’s super lazy and enjoys getting paid for your work.”

Always serve your kelk cake from the cool end of the pan.

Yesterday, my cell phone served up an ad for an app and I was able to capture this screenshot:

I took it as a sign. I’ve added Carrie Underwood to the Charterstone Jukebox. Congratulations, Carrie.

You’ll remember that I long ago predicted this whole Hugo thing would result in a Cosette-styled unwanted pregnancy. I know you can’t get pregnant “doing long distance,” but we don’t know what happened after Hugo returned from the airport.  Mary’s so happy she’s made a cake to celebrate, instead of muffins to mourn.

So, where are you planning to spend the night?
