Shoe by Gary Brookins and Susie MacNelly for July 26, 2024

…..or the ghost of Christmas past.

“…and for you to pay your bill.”

Sounds like something a therapist would say…

She is almost speaking in future tense.

Wait until you see her bill and you’ll be way past being tense.

Maybe even a participle.

I drove by the circus today… past tents.

And he should get his feet off the couch!

It looks like they’re meeting in the great outdoors. Maybe they should be inside tents.

She’s being a bit lackadaisical: not intense enough.

I read recently that Mick Jagger saw a therapist to overcome sex addiction. He seduced her.

Poor Shoe!

With her attitude, she will soon be out of business.

Unpretty in pink.

We’re a-way past tense. We’re living in bungalow’s now.

— Groucho Marx

Looking forward to see the past? Isn’t that a little backwards?

The patient was in the psychiatrist’s office, pacing back and forth, saying “I’m a wigwam! I’m a teepee! I’m a wigwam! I’m a teepee!” The doc said, “Nyah, siddown! You’re two tents!”

She said it in the spirit of future retrogression.

I’m guessing she has a lot of repeat patients… not!!
