Yes, but, Wilbur... what would Mary do if she suddenly had a lot of time on her hands? Please don't take this away from her. Who knows what could happen.

Donate to Mary Worth and Me today and help save Mary's job! (Actually, I have no influence, but maybe I could write a letter to the editor about what is write and what is wrong. Ha ha. Get it? Write? It's a little wordplay.) Today is the last day of our fall fundraising campaign, and I do appreciate all the gifts that have been given. Thank you all very much!

Wait a minute. That doesn't look like a bologna sandwich to me. That looks like the sandwiches my wife's grandmother used to make... what was that stuff called? Oh yeah, that's it...

I sure can identify with Wilbur's preference for local faire. Last week, Mrs. Wanders and I hopped into our 1993 Oldsmobile (another story for another day) and took the Road to Damascus. The Road to Damascus is one of our favorite drives. Something wonderful always happens along the way. This time, we discovered our new favorite chicken shack, Red Rooster. Hidden away behind the main business strip in Damascus, Maryland, the Red Rooster is a little carry-out chicken shoppe that has been around for decades and definitely puts KFC to shame. We bought enough chicken to bring home and share with the family (it was still warm by the time we got home), and we are definitely going back.

A special thank you to everyone who has contributed during our week of fund raising. Now that Mary's back in Santa Royale, Dr. Jeff is going to be raising a lot less money, and somebody has to pick up the slack! I am convinced that the Citizens of Santa Royale (the readers of this blog), are some of the most generous humans in the galaxy, and that includes Alpha-Gamma 2375-p17.

Oh, Wilbur, nobody pays any attention to anything you say, so don't worry so much. You're just a buffoon of a fictional character, whose only two human qualities are that you like your daughter and love ham sandwiches.

Once again, it's fund raising week. And trust me. I'm not using the money to run off to Pax Wellness Resort and Spa.

Kitchen Remodel: It appears Mary's hanging cabinets have fallen from the wall and landed behind her concrete cookbook collection.

Also, Mary has a sandwich on a plate and a cutting board. Two sandwiches. Wilbur's instincts are still sharp.

It's a new story, and it's once again time for me to humbly ask the Citizens of Santa Royale to consider making a small donation to keep the lights on and kelk in the cupboard. Thank you for your participation here at Mary Worth and Me.

If I were to label the guests and employees at Pax Wellness Resort and Spa in one broad general category, Super-Nice would be exactly the adjective I'd use. From the dimwitted yoga instructor assigned to lead group therapy without training or a license, to the silent administrator who hired her and would have fired her except for the strong will of one opinionated guest, to the building engineers who maintain the facility at just-above-condemned levels, and even the guests like Resentful Mother, Disgruntled Government Employee, and Angry Aggie... yes, I'd say they were all Super-Nice. And Super-Dysfunctional.

Today is the day we have waited for! And oh so worth the wait! Three floating heads, one of whom I actually recognize. Some things never change, but I guess hair color isn't one of those things.

That sounds wonderf... Wait a minute! That sounds exactly like home! Beautiful pool. Gorgeous grounds. Daily walks. The only difference is you didn't have Toby tagging along. You're right. That does sound delightful.

This recent trip that you're still ON?

To help explore the meaning of the word "Recent," here's a video of my kids that is not recent. Not recent at all. But timeless. It lasts less than a minute. If you think it is cute, share it on Facebook and stuff.

At first I was all like, "A security line at the airport? This is Santa Royale isn't it?" And then I was like, "No, this is Tuscon." That explains a lot: It is only the Santa Royale airport that does not use the TSA.
