Cathy Classics by Cathy Guisewite for April 29, 2010
Transcript:
Cathy: You said you were perfectly happy having our darling dogs as your grandchildren. Mom: I've changed my tune on that. Cathy: You changed your tune? Mom: I've changed many of my tunes on many subjects. I have a whole new bunch of tunes which I might start warbling at any minute in a completely random order! Cathy: I just got your normal playlist figured out! Mom: No one's ready for mother to switch to the "shuffle" function.

It was there all along, just barely hidden under a disguise.

Signs of desperation are surfacing! Kinda like the Civil War general who was trying to get his troops motivated to go into battle. Addressing the regimental band he called out “Play Yankee Doodle………Play ANYBODY’s doodle……For G**’s sake, Play SOMETHING!”

Shuffle is good on mp3 players….on mothers not so much!

My mom said about the same thing…Then one day she saw this cute baby and starting “looking” at me and hinting.

At least it isn’t the MIL doing this. Imagine the comments if she stuck her self into this one????
We’d have a BLAST!

Speaking of the in-laws…
With them there, children would be redundant.

I know of a MIL who got concerned a few months after the marriage, with no announcement about grandchildren yet, and started offering unsolicited advice about boxers-vs-briefs, healthy foods “for that you-know-what”, etc etc. Not only was it presumably futile, since most unpregnant young couples are unpregnant intentionally, but it was pretty close to the surest way imaginable to make sex with her daughter seem strangely unpalatable … at least, til MIL was safely miles away again …

Really……I really miss the dogs.
