Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for December 02, 2021

Nighty-night, Alice.

Petey’s right. It’s mine.

What happened to ‘lovely’, Miss Otterloop?

Sheeeee’s baaaaack, in all her crotchety glory.

If no one steps up, I’ll take the nap.

Just great! Now i have an ear worm and can’t get that song out of my head!

She’s going to have a tough time napping with amateur hour in the next room.

Don’t think Alice is working her way to a nap more like working her way to righteous anger at the elf conspiracy.

“Hoy Hoy Hoy”.

“Po-Jama People”, Frank Zappa

Well, that escalated quickly.

I love how Alice can interpret Petey’s music. Here’s one of my favs:

Good call, Pevey!

There are some really wonderful things about this strip, but the sounds Petey’s clarinet makes are the absolute best!

Beware the little clenched fists. :)

If Mom’s smart, she’s taking the nap.

That is shoddy Chinese for you

Alice’s ever-vivid imagination is overheating. Petey is right: it’s time for someone’s nap (regardless of whose—Alice’s, Petey’s, or Madeline’s)….
