Did you know that ice cream gets really sticky when you use it to make the itchies less? It melts all over the place! Messy, messy, messy.

Congratulations NoICan’tSpell! Who sent me snow? Booktrout, if you mean BigG I don’t know, hopefully he is still around.

thank you everyone. its now 10:45, i am at a coffee shop, and when i pick mom up from her meeting we are going to have coffee and lunch at her favorite coffee shop. so i got to coffee bar hop a bit today. it might be a good day. : )

Congradulations, noicant.

I found it easy to quit coffee, but I could never quit beer.

I’ll have a bear claw and DWFNC, thanks Ooops and Haliford!Sounds like a couple of good ideas in todays strip.

Am I the only one who can’t see my previous comment?

Nope. Just a blank square.

Or rectangle.

ToonComment: Good point, and Wink also should be glad it’s not shingles (which, as I recall, you can get as an adult if you’ve had chicken pox as a child). I have a theory that those who came up with the various concepts of ever-burning Hell either had shingles themselves or knew people that did. That’s exactly what it feels like. I know first-hand – I had one of the worst cases my doctors had seen, in fact I was photographed as a case study for one of the doctor’s classes with my permission.

Last year my mom had shingles on side of her forehead and scaple. Had to be on meds for this. Husband mom when alive had shingles on lower back.

Hello? Anyone home?

I’m here.

Rmom – Did you enjoy todays weather?

Hi, noIcantspell & Sojo!Yes, I did enjoy the weather! My bearded son & I went for a walk. We’ve agreed on walking each day it gets above 60° and isn’t raining, or we’ve got to go to town. My cardiologist will be glad to know I’m getting in some exercise. I’ve kind of hit a plateau on my weight loss, so figured I’d better increase the exercise if I want to keep losing.

The high today here was 72°, I hear tomorrow is supposed to be about 20° cooler. Not really cold, but it won’t be what I call comfortable.

Glad to hear you’re getting out. Time for my zzzzzzzzzzzz’s.
