Sometimes, I think Cathy is getting her material from me. This is onwe of those times!

I agree. My best friend and I may not talk for months sometimes, but as soon as we get on the phone, it’s like it was yesterday.

I agree - if you’re ultra busy, you can best relate to other ultra-busy people! And if they’re your best friends, even better. This is definitely me too.

Great, great, great! Charlene is coming!
And…..she does have the never-again-mentioned child!
Did she quit her job at Cathy’s firm to be a stay at home mom? She must have. Can’t wait.

I have lovely long chats with one DIL who lives in another state. She also visited while on business here last year (without my son and the kids) and we were up talking til very late.

I predict Charlene’s first words:
“Cathy! You look great!”
Women are so good at lying to their best friends…

I agree - this is one of the rare strips where Cathy actually seems normal!

Yes, this is more like the old Cathy. I always thought it was weird that we never saw what happened to Charlene and the baby that never materialized. Instead all we got to see were more bathing suits, technology and the tax man.
