Transcript:
Saleswoman: This temporarily plumps skin from within, smoothing wrinkles, filling fine lines, eliminating creping, drooping and bags. Cathy: What do I do when it wears off? Saleswoman: TWIRL AROUND, RACE OUT OF THE BALL, LOCK YOURSELF IN A BATHROOM AND RE-APPLY BEFORE YOU TURN BACK INTO A PUMPKIN!! Cathy: Oh. Saleswoman: Sooner or later, we all regret praying quite so fervently for a "fairy tale" life.

There’s another way of getting rid of wrinkles. I have a cousin who’s just three months older than I am, who lived in Arizona for many years. I hadn’t seen him for about 20 or 30 years when I saw him at our uncle’s funeral. We were both 50, but he was so wrinkled that he looked about 80. I didn’t want to be rude, so I didn’t mention it to him, but later, I commented on it to my brother. I said that it must be because living in the desert so long had ruined his skin. My brother said that wasn’t it. Everybody in our family gets really wrinkled. I answered “Well, look at us. Neither of us is wrinkled like that, and you’re 3 years older than he is.” My brother’s answer… “Yeah, but we’re fat.”

I like AVON. The stuff in the purple packaging for a certain age group : )

I wear my wrinkles proudly. I earned them. It took a lot of smiling to create them.
Happy midweek again. They seem to occur so often.

I kept trying to think of a different comment here. I really did.
However, I kept returning to the “seismic [eye-roll]” one. Hey—at least this comic is consistent. (And, no, I wouldn’t have “Cathy” any other way.)
HI, MOM. Hello, Clan.

I’d rather turn into a pumpkin than whatever that saleslady has turned into in panel 3.
