Cathy Classics by Cathy Guisewite for October 02, 2012

Good Morning all. I am still unpacking from my trip too. lol The similarities are scary. Have a good one!

That’s only because you always overthink the “getting ready to go out” part, Cathy! EYEROLL

Hello all. You usually comment by now frightenup, guess I’ll check back later. I have to admit that I change my mind a couple of times about outfits, but nowhere near as extreme as Cathy.

Wow, look at that! I guess Irving is long gone. That’s really quite scary, so it’s good he didn’t see it.Hello, Susan, ncalifgirl and legaleagle! Rise and shine, Aaron! I assume you’re sleeping now, so I hope you’re getting some rest.Hello to the rest of the crowd… GsMom, KFG, Billy, rgcviper, lindz.coop, hendelca, Mona, serenasakitty, kittycatpawsare, gmforde, soonergal, lippyfish, Mai Tai, Willi Nilli, mollie, AnonaMona, Bronzepony, simpsonfan2, tegm, legaleagle, Shyygirl27, catsarge10, BJIllistrated, ncalifgirl58, Molly mcgee, Teresa, mar mar in MI and all the other Cathy nuts rolling around here today!p.s. I left a late message yesterday, but in case you don’t go back a day, I love your name rgcviper!! And I hope your paper is going well, Shyygirl!

Quiet this afternoon! I take about 10 minutes to unpack after a trip. Dirty clothes to the laundry room, clean clothes (never many of these!) back in the closet/dresser, contents of shaving kit back into ‘my’ drawer in the bathroom, suitcase in the storage closet. Done. My wife takes about two days with a LOT more clean clothes to put away. I figure that if I run out of clean clothes I can always buy more wherever I am traveling – and usually for cheaper than I can get them at home! I hope the rest of you Cathyites are having as beautiful a day as we are – sun is shining, leaves are coloured, temp about 15C. Perfect fall day!

I like that all of Cathy’s clutter is gray and colorless. Says a lot about her mood without saying anything.

fightenup your “rise and shine” was at least two hours too early and didn’t work. ;-P It’s a perfect day for sleeping in. Almost 7 hours. NICE!. LMB had to stand on my chest on all fours before I woke up. Otherwise we’d be in a wee bit of a problem.

Hi Susan if you come back. No dessert to post today. I’m taking a batch of chocolate chip cookies that I made early this a.m. to my crew. Hi ncali, shyy, and hendelca.

hendelca I gotta to a Google temp conversion to see what 15C is, though slightly cool and nice I bet. :-D

LMB’s homage to October

I can’t imagine having as many clothes, shoes or cosmetics as Cathy seems to think she needs. Or the money to buy them all. Or enough room to store them!

Sweaters maybe. Aaron and I are the same size so we share our ‘collection’. My latest count (just now out of curiosity) has us at 32 sweaters of varying weights, all of them pullover/crew neck.

Oh, Billy – you look somehow different today!

I love the colours of Autumn leaves. Very striking!

(No, LMB – I know it was a bad joke, but you mustn’t actually hit him. The eyeroll will do fine.)

(This time.)

My tired little buddy and I had a busy night with friends over for dinner. Aaron was already on two EMS runs this evening. I can go to bed while I know he’s safe at the station.

G’nite AnonaMouse, rgcviper stealthy cat, lindz.coop, and kittycatpawsare. :-D

@ncalifgirl — I’m with you — been there done that!! Just makes a mess to clean up when you get home.

@hendelca — my husband packs a toothbrush, t-shirt, pair of shorts and is ready to go. Tho I’m definitely getting better, I still want something clean for every day I’m away.

@Billy — love your “new leaf”

@Aaron — your insomnia must be catching — I was awake until 4:00 am — but I see clients at night, so it doesn’t matter too much — I just missed a morning ballet class.

Goodnight, everyone (except Cathy, who still has a lot of sorting and tidying to do before bed) – it’s getting chilly these nights, too cold to stay up around the clock.

Sleep well, and have warm, comforting dreams.

Hi to all my ghostly family BOO.Hi Billy your so sweet to say hi.Aaron i can’t sleep very well so my dr’s have me on alprazolam,temazepam and oxygen to help me sleep the oxygen is for me to breath because my breathing is really low and there afraid i might die in my sleep.Boy that cathy needs to use her money on other things like rent food ect… : )

@legaleagleI second the "overthinking " idea. Took the words right out of my keyboard!

@frightenupThanks! The names for Halloween and other occasions are fun.

@AaronLove Snoopy with the pumpkin. Thanks for the smile.
