The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for September 19, 2024

I’m sure “The rest of your life” can wait a little longer, right?

Wise resolution. They can do without you in the office for today.

My day started at the dentist, got all my uppers yanked and got 6 implants and new uppers. A very long day. Down side, I can’t chew anything hard for 6 months…but I’m happy

Would you like some soup recipes? Or a can opener?

The first day of the rest of his life has been rescheduled.

Amen. Best idea you’ve had all day.

Wise move.

Do not hurt yourself.

Sounds like a plan Brutus .

Should have stayed in bed Brutus. You look like death warmed over. Maybe Mother Gargle can warm you up some milk. Make you feel better Un Huh.

I had to go back to the previous panel to see that Brutus is holding a mirror down at his side. In the last panel, you think he’s just got a morning condition.

the second day of the rest of your life can wait…

I’m with you Brutus. There are days I would much prefer to return to bed as well.

Your Spidey-sense may be warning you of a bad day Brutus. Better call in sick. Tomorrow will also be the first day of the rest of your life.

Brutus looks hung over.

Noooooo! Then you’ll get a slow start to the rest of your life….LOL! ☺️

Yeah, I’m not sure I want to begin my day either. :j

I don’t blame you, Brutus.

Can’t blame him, it is a workday. However you have another day completed meaning one day less of suffering in this life……

Good idea Brutus. This also could be the last day of your life

Attaboy Brutus……

Points to Brutus for trying to do a morning positivity. Now put the mirror away until your eyes can actually focus.

The 3rd panel…placement of the mirror.

Sometimes it doesn’t pay to get out of bed.

So it’s not gonna get any better.

Wish I could Thorny, wish I could.

Right there with you.

Best go back to bed.

I got my flu shot today. It might be a little early, but I am in a hospital for hours at a time at least once a week. Of course, the shot was at the hospital and free since I am a volunteer. Ran into another dog therapy team in the flu shot room, and we then went together to make therapy dog visits for several hours. The other person is fairly new, so we showed her lots of places she can take her dog. She also has ear problems with symptoms close to mine, but she has no specific diagnosis yet. I shared my ear doctor’s name and phone number. I feel for her.

i usually get up between 3:30 and 4 and there are days like this morning when i awoke out of a sound sleep, in the middle of a dream, when i feel as bleary as brutus, but i never feel like going back to bed again. it doesn’t take me long to get the motor running and my chipper attitude annoys my sleepy wife no end… ☺
