Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for December 17, 2020

Mom! Why do our PJs have numbers on them! And they all are orange!

Well dear, that’s so you will never feel comfortable wearing them outside to fetch the newspaper.

Mom does her shopping at the Prison Outlet Store…

Be one of us, come and join us, PJs for everyone, you’ll never worry about sleep again.

A dysfunctional family is rarely difficult to spot; honestly it is much harder to find a “normal” one. Heavy Sigh… I know of which I speak… but hey! Love ‘em while you got ‘em! They may not be here much longer.

Holiday memories can make a lasting impression. One year, Christmas at my sisters house, my dog killed my niece and nephews beloved pet rabbit. That is a Christmas they will never forget. Like any good uncle, I do what I can…

Incisive analysis.

Do they have ugly holiday sweaters too?

I also love their “heat map” faces.

Gersh does my ass look big..compared to the banana or coconut PJs on Aunt Kelly or Aunt Helen?

And the most dysfunctional family. The ones who run this place and said they would fix Sherpa 3 years ago and never will.

Star-bellied Sneetches.

At Dannemora Correctional Facility in Clinton, N.Y.

Pajamas? Really? I stopped wearing those long ago. (What if anything I wear to bed now is not your business.)

The other catch is that, as an old Fart only child, I don’t have “family” close enough to be under the same roof (or cartoon frame), though it may be true that some of my not-so-close relatives are to varying degrees dysfunctional….

And why are you snooping on the Family, anyway?

Got a Christmas card from my nephew last year that showed his family in an outside setting with one stranger photobombing in the background … the sentiment on the back read “Merry Christmas from our family … and some random Dude” … it was the best …!

Uniformity is always better than dysfunctionality for spotty sleep wearers.

…a holiday tradition around here: Christmas Eve pjs…

…I am a nightshirt man…

…but enough about what I wear to work …

…and I drink my nightcap…

…but what the hell is a kerchief anyway?…

…my college girlfriend used to rejoin at the end of the verse…

…it wasn’t just his stockings that were well hung…

…alas- it was a generic well hung…

… they put the fun in Dysfunctional…

…tap…

…tap…

…is this thing on?…

If a family that I’m visiting starts changing into pajamas, then I take it as a subtle hint that I should go home now.

Actually, reading that sentence above over again, it could be taken as referring to human beings transforming into articles of clothing rather than putting them on. That would be interesting to see, but I still think I’d leave.

I heard the Froglandia Bathmat Factory is having a huge and bigly blowout clearance of matching outfits and sleepwear next week. The first 5 customers will win a free pair of warm and fuzzy bunny slippers. So hurry on down on DECEMBER 24th to redeem your prize now. HotChocolate Frog juice served while waiting…

Did I save it for Day 2 that I am secretly a member of the Froglandian subversive Anti-PJ League? No doubt you’ve seen our graffito-emblem emblazoned on many a Froglandian wall, especially in the dingier neighborhoods….

Dysfunctional families are all alike; every functional family is functional in its own way. At least three of them are NOT wearing ties.

It wasn’t until I was a teenager that I realized families could be happy and relaxed.

Doubly so if they’re of print-on business suits.

I think this her way of telling us that she has no intention of producing any Frog-merch; better to not stand out.

At least they are not clogging.

Maybe this is what they are wearing…https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XjjveaYRJg8

Overcompensating gives them away.

…once upon a time at a giant roller coaster themed amusement park I saw a young woman waiting in line next to us wearing the exact summer pjs that my wife had …

…of course, Wally World you see that every day…

….a whole family in their pajamas, now, that’s a Christmas card…

…fleece Navidad…

….dad with his pipe…

…(or was it mom?)…and wearing ties …

…best bath mat EVER!…

Frog camouflage .. Able to sneak by the enemy.

Festive woolen onesies.

Fun pics on the blog …!

Dysfunction junction, where’s your gumption? Assumption of malfunction, lame requires resumption!

At Day 3, this Family Reunion with pajamas is getting a little smelly….
