Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for January 15, 2019

Marlene should give up on her Mary Poppins style exit.

Her insurance carrier may consider it a pre-exsisting condition.

Marlene had a tad too much wine.

Dang it! My wife can do this to me all the time. Stay up until all hours watching TCM, them sleep until noon (yes, I usually let her because I love her).

mmm, Marty, don’t you think you should check her pulse?

I usually wake up just before I hit the floor. Never get hurt tho.

Marlene and her double martinis….

It’s all about style, elegance and keeping your fingers crossed.

She looks as though she closed her account

She’s just resting her eyes…..

Marlene forgot to fasten her seatbelt.

Marty isn’t much of a conversationalist.

Good morning Sheriff.

..and for all eternity.

Maybe she’ll pick up in the morning.

Something she was reading – she was absolutely floored.

Just be a good hubby. Get her a pillow and a blanket. After reading the funnies.

Consciousness is overrated.

“I have got to stop telling her about the amazing liquidity of the foreign exchange market…”

What book is that? I must remember never to buy it.

Marlene’s swan dive is a bust.

Marty (?) thinks “here we go again”.. darn fool
