Holy Hyper, Batman — KFG is back and she brought all her crazy sisters to help make comments. Wow, KFG your avatar is making my eyes loop the loops. :-D
I’m surprised Irving’s tongue didn’t snap off and run away. Come on Irving, you’re still making us male of the species look bad. Sigh.

Darn it, that image didn’t work! I’ll have to work on it later… Anyway, about the comic…Irving, Irving, you are soo in denial, you’re embarrassing yourself. You can’t turn back the clock, so just embrace what you are. And you’re only as old as you feel, so if exercising makes you feel good, then go for it! Sigh… eyerollGood morning, Aaron and Lewreader!! Wow, is it alumni week or what? Lewreader – welcome back!! So good to hear from you! I always love your comments, so I hope you post here again and often. :-)Aaron, have a great time in NH and I hope it helps your recovery! We are going to Maine on Friday, so we’ll be close(-ish). We’ll at least be enjoying the same cool weather. Have a great time!Hello to GsMom, Billy, legaleagle, rgcviper, lindz.coop, hendelca, Mona, serenasakitty, kittycatpawsare, gmforde, soonergal, lippyfish, Mai Tai, Willi Nilli, mollie, Hobbes and all the other Cathy nuts rolling around here today!

Aack! KFG is baack! Thirty-something Irving is having his mid-life crisis early. I am also tired of the “aging baby boomer” tag and I’m in my 50s. It goes downhill from there, dude. lol

I can’t roll my eyes at Irving any more — I just can’t. Looks like friend Aaron rolled his so hard he ended up upside down. Wow.
K F G wow. Hullo! To quickly answer your overnight questions, LMB is about 17 or 18 pounds by now. A runt for sure. If you look at Cathy in April (on Sundays) you’ll see his pic. It’s make you go “Awwwwww”. :-D About Aaron, he was on an EMS call. He and his EMS partner got hit by a car little over 3 weeks go. Trashed hip. Now recuperaitng, slowly but surely.
kittycatpawsare LOVED your comment last night. Aaron is my whole life so being there for him is easy. It doesn’t get any better than my bud and LMB.

WOW! I am going to take long weekend trips more often. I come back to find Lewreader back and then – - – KFG IS BACK! What an excellent start for my shortened week. Oops – did it again. Read the comments now I had better go back and read the strip!
hendelca Premium Member over 12 years ago
Ok – read the strip now. Hate to say it but I sound too much like Irving. The calendar says I am an aging boomer BUT I AM YOUNG! (ouch)
Koolfunkygrrl over 12 years ago
Another thing too….my computer was acting really wacky….I couldn’t go online for ANYTHING!!!….that’s another reason why I wasn’t on here……so yeah i have a new one now :)
gobblingup Premium Member over 12 years ago
Awww, we’re all on at the same time (KFG 9 min ago and Aaron 5 min ago ♥♥)!! I’m so sorry about all you’ve been through! I guess the signs were all there and it was good you got a break because it seems you needed it! But you’re probably stubborn like me, and thought you were fine and could handle it all, so you kept doing it all. Poor thing, I hope you feel better now and I’m really sorry about Sadie. It really hurts when our fuzzy family members are gone… :-(Well, we’re really glad you’re back! I didn’t want to bug you too much with “KFG, where are you??”, but I also didn’t want to give up on you, so I’m glad you came back. :-) Hope you’re here to stay and hope we help with you feeling less stressed because I can certainly attest to how coming here helps me! Hugs!!

Hey Susan! Actually, I loved the one of Trout (and I love that comic too!), but everything today pointed towards Wonder Woman, so I thought it was time for a change (at least for a little bit).Today started out with lil lightenup randomly giving me a Wonder Woman sticker (I don’t get stickers from her every day, maybe once a month – she’s not so much into stickers anymore). Then KFG came back, and she and I are superhero sisters where I’m Wonder Woman. And I was just feeling good and not as sarcastic/cynical as I usually am, so I thought I’d change it, at least for a little while. I’m sure I’ll change it again sometime soon…. Hope this one makes you smile too. :-)

In response to the comic? You guessed it. Another big eye-roll.
Welcome back to both K.F.G. and Lew. Great to see you two again!
Hope all the other “Cathy” nuts are well, too.

Hi Cathyites!! — I think Irving has a stress fracture of the brain.
Hi & welcome back Lewreader and KFG!! The family grows! Sorry for all you’ve been thru KFG, I hope life lightens up for you now. Especially sorry for the loss of your poopers — I have cats and I know what it’s like to lose them — even when the time has come.
