Cathy: MOM! Mom (out of frame): Uh, oh. Let me see. "Wedding Invitation." ...No, it's worse. "Wedding invitation to the wedding of an ex-boyfriend." ...Uh, oh...No. It's worse. "Wedding invitation to the wedding of an ex-boyfriend who once proposed to you". Dad: Impressive. Mom: Men read the mail. Mothers read the mascara.
If this “ex-boyfriend who once proposed” to Cathy was all that special, then why didn’t she marry him?!? There’s a reason why he’s her “ex” and apparently has been for quite some time . . . so why cry over him getting married to someone else? Granted, it’s bizarre that he would send her a wedding invitation but if she was the one who dumped him (because we ALL know how picky and critical Cathy is regarding men!), then it may be his way of saying: “Hey! I’ve moved on! No hard feelings! Come celebrate with us!” OR . . . he invited her to his wedding just so that he can rub it in that’s he’s now getting married and she’s still pathetically single!
Welcome Rachel / ncalifgirl58! Glad you’re coming out of the “shadowy world of the lurkers” and have decided to join us on a more regular basis!!! While I don’t read anything on Go Comics but “Cathy”, “Calvin & Hobbes”, “Pluggers” and “For Better Or For Worse”, I can’t imagine there being a better group than ours anywhere else out there!!!!! Our little “family” here is just so sweet, friendly and respectful towards each other that I can’t wait to come here everyday! And when I can’t be here (like on Sunday’s when we spend the day with my mom), I really miss all my “friends” and look forward to Monday rolling around when I know I’ll be back to “see” them all again. Glad you’re now one of them! ;-)
Aaron: Got anymore of those jumbo cupcakes to take care of my case of the grumpies today?!? Granted, it’s not as bad (today) as it was yesterday but I’m in nowhere near as good a mood as I normally am . . . even for a Monday! [sigh]
