Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for March 23, 2012

Mathew, can’t you take part of the drapery cord for a tassel? That lamp shade needs just a bit more.

Such a glaring idea – I’ll avert my eyes now

Has he got anymore bright ideas?

As Matthew waits patiently, while his bride of many years puts the final touches on her face; his mind travels through a small clear window in the recess of his memory; to an earlier time when frolic brought a smile to their faces. In those days they were having fun and going places. Matthew knows Shirley gets it, he’s sure she will turn the light on. It’s Friday night, stay steady and end strong.

Matthew you are the light !

what do you call the little thing that is on the table that holds the lamp shade on?

A lamp shade on a dim bulb.

^ His rheostat is just turned down for the evening.

Couldn’t wait for the party to start.

don’t recognize that – all i can think of is something with stomach bypass or rhinoplasty (first thing i got on google)

that rubber hose in nose thing

Can’t wait for the next frame:

Y’all have a great Wednesday! (((((HuGz!)))))

The light of knowledge used to burn beneath that lampshade. Alas, no more.
