Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for September 25, 2005

Transcript:

"I had lunch with Neighbor Bob today...Gosh, he sure is unhappy since he and his wife had kids..." "Why is that?" "He says that since his wife became a mom, she's a totally different person...She no longer pays any attention to him." "Well...being a mom is a lot of work, you know." "Yeah, I told him that, but he says he didn't think things would get this bad...Now he feels like he got duped into marriage by a woman whose only goal was to be a mom." "In fact, he says that things have gotten so bad that he now just feels like a piece of furniture taking up space in the house." "Ohh, Pig...I'm sure Neighbor Bob is exaggerating a little...You should always remember that with marriage there are always two sides to the story..." "I guess you're right." "...I spilled my milkshake on the couch again, Mommy." "It's okay, Timmy...I think we're gonna trade this one in." "I love you, Mama."
