Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for November 06, 2023

that’s a skill that not even a psychologist can provide

Lester is of the opinion that her prozac is too dosage high.

You can almost see the marbles rattling around in all that empty space.

She’s a legend in her own mind!!!!

I’m not going to go there

Or hands

She gives new meaning to the term " blank stare"

At least she seems happier than most BS women.

Well, don’t we all?

And they’re coming to take me away, ha ha

Lester doesn’t mind those day trips, but the weeklong trips are more problematic.

I’ll have what she’s having…

Good morning Balladeers!

Sometimes, pleasuring yourself in you own mind is better. And, Lester is relieved that he won’t be needed tonight.

Lester wonders if she’ll make it back this time. Ah, well, just another of “The Perils of Pauline”…

John Prine’s “Illegal Smile”

Pauline is at her vacation home in “La-La Land”.

I do too! I’m very self amusing.

It’s good company

She goes there often to get a break from her ornery husband.

Bottle it, and I’ll take a case.

Not surprisingly, Lester finds himself reconsidering his vows.

pauline appears to have misplaced her mind…

She’s on a first name basis at those castles in the sky, where she’s always found to be singing, Up, Up and Away.

It’s a nice place to visit, and Pauline would like to live there…without Lester.

Pauline discovered a hidden door she’s never explored.
