Pickles by Brian Crane for June 03, 2013

Opal is gonna cancel you out!

Earl should be ashamed of himself.

Stack those bags on the couch, Opal.

Sweetie, if you’ve got that much energy, you can walk the trash to the bins yourself. I always do.

Earl finally is truthful.

How do you get 9 bags of trash out of a pantry and some cupboards? She must have had an awful lot of out-of-date food and chipped glassware.

Try living alone, Opal. Having to take out nine bags of trash is exactly what keeps me from cleaning out the pantry!!

If she had to do it herself, She would not do it. Same old same old.

Pay Nelson to haul out those bags.

why do men always get punished for women’s emotinal outbursts.

Just like Opal and Earl, my husband hates when I have a burst of energy – he knows it means work for him. Luckily, these days, my bursts are few and far between.

My bursts of idleness far surpass my bursts of energy, these days. Don’t get me wrong. I love work. I can sit and watch it all day.

Earl: “OK, Later”Opal: “When’s ‘later’?"Earl: “LATER!”LOL xxx

“Bursts” of idleness?

HA ! This has been ME these last few days. Except it’s been outside work , not in the house !! My poor husband : D

I can understand Earl perfectly – every time my wife gets a burst of energy, it causes work for me, too.

“Just so he understands no food fixed by Opal if he doesn’t do it the day of trash pickup.”-My brother and I struck a deal when going to college. He would cook and I would wash the dishes.“The dishes are dirty.”“I’m not hungry.”-It turns out I had to wash the dishes regardless of hunger. -Life isn’t fair
