Cathy Classics by Cathy Guisewite for August 14, 2020
Transcript:
Cathy: Irving saw a picture of himself on Facebook, realized that life is flashing by, and is having a midlife crisis. Irving: I am NOT having a midlife crisis! "Mid" is in the middle! I'm too young to be in the middle of life! AND I'm too old to think I'm too young to be in the middle of life! Cathy: He's having a 1/3-To-5/8-life crisis. Irving: Thank you. Much better.

I always assumed Irving’s hair was curly. It’s drawn to look like close curls. Looks like he’s straightening it.

I told my husband recently that he is middle aged, and he was a bit unhappy about that label. I told him to double his age, and then think about how old he hopes to live to. After that he will figure out that he is middle aged. As for me, I’m a realist and came to terms with it a while ago. Life is life, and all ages are interesting. It’s what you do about them that matters.
On a side note, who is Cathy talking to? Maybe her mother. Is a sports car next for his newly discovered midlife crisis? Hello Cathy friends! Happy Friday! Have a great day, all!

If you want to really change your looks, grow a beard and trim it to look like you think you would have looked if you had a beard when you were younger. That’ll do it. ;}

Using the calculating lightenup suggested I am just entering into middle aged – after all I hope to live to at least 140. Maybe by then I will get to finish a lot of projects I have started.
Friday! Have an excellent day and I hope you are looking forward to a great weekend. Mine started two days ago when my older daughter arrived home for a few days. My younger and son-in-law will be arriving home later tonight. Hugs with masks but still great to have the family home for a weekend.

For some reason, this one made me think of that line from The Grinch … [smile]
“I wouldn’t touch you [the Grinch] with a … thirty-nine and a half foot pole!”
HI, MOM. Happy just past Friday, Clan.
