Cathy Classics by Cathy Guisewite for August 19, 2012

You don’t lose 25 pounds in one afternoon at the gym, Cathy. What were you expecting to see at the end of your workout?

I’d take Sealtest (New England only I think) Heavenly Hash, a bit of a spin on Rocky Road. Then again, I ride a bike 3+ miles a day and swim. My skinny buttsky is skinnier since June 3rd and I wear a size 28 jeans. Barefoot, of course. My avatar tells all.

Sigh. 2:05 a.m. Sleep won’t come. LMB is on my lap because he followed me downstairs, wondering why I had to get up. My muscle relaxer normally makes me drowsy but not tonight. Heavy sigh.

Morning Susan and lightenup a bit later. Afternoon AnonaMona (you can have all the ice cream you want.) Good afternoon Bronzepony as well. Billy took your idea yesterday of wanting a cup of ice cream for your hotter than usual day and posted a pic of a multi-stacked ice cream cone. Thankfully it’s self-refilling so there’s plenty to have your favorite flavor.

I thought about you today :-)

to Aaron; Have you tried the new Klondike bar flavor Rocky Road? I would have to ride across the country to work off all of those I have eaten this summer.

Susan and others who have not yet been introduced:

His majesty Little Muttley Beagle

At first, when I saw panels 1 & 6, I thought Cathy was unzipping the locker. Whoops. Ha.

Happy Sunday, all.

Awwwwww, there’s my little man. Broken hearted not to see him for so many weeks. :-( Actually Blackwolff9 that’s his just-now-woke-up face. He’s a happy pup with the personality of a little kid. We haven’t told him yet that’s he’s a dog. Sshhhhh :-)

He’s lovely! LMB I mean, of course. One of my cats always looks a bit silly when he’s just woken up, but the rest of the time he bounds through life with a great big beaming smile all over him.

The joys of youth, I suppose!

P.S. The ice cream was gorgeous . . . thank you!

Thank you Dr Billy for yesterday’s ice cream! Refreshing just to look at it. Mine was only a little bit smaller. Spent most of today at the lake and just checked in to admire LMB – soooo sweet! I just love beagles. Have a good day everyone, bedtime here across the little ocean…

:-D So glad you all got to see our little guy. He’s a keeper. He’s sitting at my feet because he knows I’m winding down. 4 hours of sleep last night means an early bedtime tonight. When I say “Done!” he’ll take off like a little bullet.

Okay little buddy . . . D o n e.

Oohhhhh, so funny. Good night all.

Goodnight Aaron, LMB, Billy – and everybody else. Sweet dreams tonight.

That little guy is sooo cute!!! I remember that photo and have shown my kids it when they ask about LMB. Our virtual puppy friend…. :-)Hugs to all… I’m happy to come here especially because I have been grumpy most of the weekend due to rude people. Half of me wants to speak up about feeling offended, and half of me thinks I should just move on and avoid these people. Whatever I decide to do, I do appreciate coming here where everyone is nice and considerate!! THANKS!!
