Peanuts by Charles Schulz for December 10, 2021

you are a good friend Snoopy!

But Woodstock was getting to the good part, Snoopy!

The devil is in the details.

Don’t we all, most often, embellish details.

Today Snoopy would be yelling “TMI!”

Reminds me of my Mother-in-law (RIP wonderful lady) when she got flustered over something.

If only I could understand what he was saying.

Woodstock, instead of trying to draw blades of grass, just make a straight line.

My mom always though that she would have to explain the entire backstory when relating events. For example, if the story involve a person named John, She would start with how long his mother was in labor with him.

So one day she was off on about the 12th tangent when I interrupted her and said, “Mom, just give me the details.”

My wife is sometimes the opposite. She will talk about people that I do not know or start a conversation with things like “She thinks that …” I have to stop her and ask which one of the many “shes” that we know is the subject of the sentence.

Also we have an issue with Barbaras (of which we know 4) and Davids (of which we know 5).

I’m getting good at knowing who she is talking about by the context of the monolog.

And then you discovered another parking lot full of clean cars?

Got friends like that myself……

Ad lib?

BIrd Splaining!

I know someone Woodstock can take lessons from. The problem is, he’d then forget what he was originally talking about. Way too many tangents to find his way back to the original topic.
