Lessee, for Monday, Dez needs to show off the artifacts she collected from her travels. Tiffanie and Stefani need to go against each other. Bets needs to come up with new endeavors.
Well, this turned out to be a special day. Toni gave the go-ahead. We’ll be coming back to this story arc a lot. Meanwhile, what will the artists focus on next? I’d like to get back to the college kids. I wonder if we’ll ever see them graduate?
…and verily doth the Evans set 2025 as the Year of Toni’s Pregnancy.
I see a scientific opportunity. We can see how long Toni is pregnant in real time, and begin to formulate new theories about the passage of strip time, and whether the latter has accelerated.
As hoped since the beginning, the experience of having Shannon for a whole month has erased any doubts about having children. Now there’s just to wait for the announcement, but I think them will have a child in the next year. I can’t wait, I want to see Luann’s reaction and Shannon’s too.
I am thinking that to cut off a comic like this implies one thing but then the strip will go in another direction. I do not think Toni was going to finish with, to have a baby.
This stuff about Toni charting her “optimal” dates is really weird because that more what people do when they have fertility issues. There is no reason to assume that Brad and Toni have fertility issues. In fact at their age just not using protection should enough to get Toni pregnant in a matter of weeks. Optimal dates sort of implies that they rarely have sex and need to plan it far in advance. Maybe this is Karen’s way of showing just how committed Toni is but it just comes off weird,

And in the immortal words of Rodney Dangerfield, “The best thing about kids… is making them!” ;)
There you go.. Brad is in Heaven. I wonder how long it will be until Toni becomes pregnant?
So after all these weeks… what will the NEW story arc be on Monday??

Toni: Brad. Down boy. This is not an optimal date.
Mordock999 Premium Member 12 days ago
Okay.
So it’s now “official?”
Toni is FINALLY onboard with having a baby?
Nancy will be ESTATIC when the “Toni announces she’s pregnant,” arc drops. No doubt when ANY of Us least expect it.
Good luck to Toni during that period.
And good luck to Brad who’s going to be the SOLE breadwinner for awhile. ;-)French Persons Premium Member 12 days ago

Optimal dates? I’m thinking at their age, Brad’s performance and optimal dates really isn’t something Toni has to worry about.
