Works for me! And I can telling all of those lonely, ravenous women that keep calling (you think I’m kidding, don’t you) “Sorry, sweetie.” At this age it’s much less work…
Pastis is not the only one on an extended bender, that’s for sure! I have a friend who works for one of the local micro-breweries here in the Tampa Bay area, she says 2 of their locations are doing quite well with take-away and beer delivery while the 3rd down in Cape Coral is devoted to manufacturing hand sanitizer which is keeping most of their employees on the pay role which is good in these troubling times………….
Cartoon-Boy tells the truth about his wretched existence! He’s let himself go—not dressed, not shaved, porked up…. I admit I have developed a beard, though, so I guess I am the pot calling out the kettle. Another Good Thing that he did not make explicit: Staci has let him stay in the house rather than in that basket on the door-stoop!
What happened to your inner resources??? They were pretty good until today. . .my life hasn’t changed much. . .reading, sewing, quilting, creating just for the fun of it. . .conversations with friends. . .
The Brits speak of the “problem of the holidays”, i.e., when the kids who have been off at boarding schools return home. And the parents have to learn their names all over again.
I have to admit this social distancing doesn’t bother me much at all. I am a homebody who like to read. The only things I miss are going out dancing and being able to try on clothes at stores.
If you check out the “Cathy Commiseratetion” comics (please don’t, it’s awful) it’s basically about Cathy putting on a ton of weight. Sheesh. As if she speaks for everyone. I’ve actually lost a few pounds from being so stressed out. Yawn.

If he is home with his wife, then he doesn’t get to go quite so far in relaxing his standards. Unless she joins in.
