If your teenager is so often in a bad mood that it is a special occasion when they are in a good mood, that is usually the sign of depression. You should be worried not when they are happy, but because they are never happy. John’s priorities are completely wack-a-doodle.
See, I thought Mike’s parents were aware he was going on a date. You’d think John would be able to put two and two together. Or was it just Elly who was aware of it? John does seem pretty oblivious sometimes.
Part of what I love so much about Lynn’s work is the way she’ll give little bits of business to other characters, in this case April, that have nothing to do with the focus of the strip. It’s just so beautifully observed and exactly how toddlers behave. It’s also what makes the comic so human and involving, IMO.
Getting kissed will do that to a guy. Don’t worry, the other end of that relationship sine wave will hit soon enough and you’ll have all the sour puss you want.
It’s a shame some people have to troll comics with negative comments just to get replies so they can be “featured”. They might need some actual psychiatric analysis instead psychobabble they put out.
Michael is acting like Lawrence winning a free trip to San Francisco, or the Enjo kids hearing that the school year has been expanded to 12 months a year.

Maybe he’s thinking that he’ll be graduating soon—and can leave the cuckoo’s nest for good!!

If they think Michael is bad, just wait until a certain time of the month for Elizabeth.

Ah Michael is in “Love” now but all too soon he will learn……….
Love hurts, love scars
Love wounds and marks
Any heart
Not tough or strong enough
To take a lot of pain, take a lot of pain
Love is like a cloud
Holds a lot of rain
Love hurts
Ooh, ooh, love hurts
I’m young, I know, but even so
I know a thing or two
I learned from you
I really learned a lot, really learned a lot
Love is like a flame
It burns you when it’s hot
Love hurts
Ooh, ooh, love hurts
Some fools think of happiness
Blissfulness, togetherness
Some fools fool themselves, I guess
They’re not foolin’ me
I know it isn’t true
I know it isn’t true
Love is just a lie
Made to make you blue
Love hurts
Ooh, ooh, love hurts
Ooh, ooh, love hurts
I know it isn’t true
I know it isn’t true
Love is just a lie
Made to make you blue
Love hurts
Ooh, ooh, love hurts
Ooh, ooh, love hurts
Ooh, ooh…

He kissed a girl and he liked it
The taste of her cherry chapstick
He kissed a girl just to try it
Now He’s walking on cloud nine

Yes, he’s in a good mood… For now. Michael will soon begin to realize that he just complicated his life by 1000%…
