Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for November 23, 2015

Gets dark awfully early this time of year.

This time of year, when it gets dark, 7:50 does seem late, and I’m ready for bed….At least propped up by pillows reading a book……

I didn’t have a chance to get back online yesterday so I was quite surprised at all of the interesting comments on yesterday’s strip. I never thought my comment would unleash such a tempest. I did think that some of them were a bit sharp but who am I to judge..@DOSQueenYesterday’s strip reminded me of times (BK) when my wife and I would sit in the all together in front of a nice warm fire listening to music, sipping wine, holding hands, giving and receiving loving caresses while talking about many things like projects we were working on or wanted to start, or plans for our future. It is quite therapeutic and rejuvenating to be vulnerable like that but it all melts away when you’re with someone you love deeply and vice versa. I recommend it. Even though we are no longer spring chickens we still find opportunities to this day..As I didn’t make any comment about sexual activity your comment would seem to be more telling of you mind set than mine..I certainly hope that it doesn’t mean that you are bereft of any similar experiences as I have described above.That would be sad..@George AlexanderReally?As if your comment on the July 14, 2015 Arlo and Janis about adult coloring books isn’t?“Coloring in pics of bikini (or less) clad babes.”

I can’t imagine what that’s like yet, I still have children in the home.

What would be the option to watching another intense episode? Maybe creating an intense episode of their own would work. You’re under arrest Janis and I am going to have to handcuff you. Mmmm! Sounds interesting.

This would be our life this time of year.

Sounds like A @ J are trying to get caught up on Breaking Bad! My wife and I didn’t get into Breaking Bad until the third season and then we got so hooked we’d go thru two or three episodes a night to get caught up.

Sounds familiar, 8 PM and we’re yawning……

Not the evening Arlo had in mind.

Jimmy, stop peeking in my window. We did this last week.

I’ve been binge watching The Rockford Files. Couple of hours each night.

And Arlo thought it was closer to Midnight.

Just because it gets dark earlier doesn’t mean you have to eat dinner at 4 pm. Just eat dinner at 6-7, clean up, then watch TV. It will be 10 pm when you are done with all that.

You guys are drinking coffee anyway.

That’s what happens when the sun goes down at 4:30…for all those folks who wanted standard time…
