The Truth About Brody Forest…

by Tony Carrillo via GoComics

Yes, it’s true. Brodyworld contains its own forest, and while it’s a hell of a lot of fun to take part in the goings-on there – especially for Layla the Lithe – we’ve also discovered a few negatives.

Especially allergies – Gwen the Beautiful’s, mine, and, yeppers, Layla’s too.

Cedar, it turns out, can be lethal.

Who knew?

On the other hand, I never was much for camping anyway. Mostly, I just liked to look. And now I can look without leaving the comfort of our living space. And with the windows closed.

Except for activities involving the pooper scooper, that is.

In other words, the comic strip above is ABSOLUTELY RIGHT.

And that’s really not such a bad thing.

Today I Learned…

…That even the least consequential life event can be a true learning experience.

TIL (that’s “Today I Learned,” according to the wise users of Reddit.Com) that Mary Worth’s boyfriend (did you know his name was Jeff? I already did so I’ll just move on) is rich? I didn’t either.

Until I saw this:

But that’s not all I learned. I also learned that not only is Jeff not just another comic strip middle class something or other he’s also the kind of rich motherfucker who happily has had the VERY SAME NOSE JOB as Mary her very self:

So much for middle class, down-to-earth Mary…Jeff.

Or, to belabor a point I’ve clearly made all to often on this blog:

>sigh<

Mary Worth is of course

Finally Spring

by LB

Five days in a row with the temperature finally going above 60 degrees have had a profound effect on Gwen’s and my here and now. If there’s one thing we’ve learned up here in the PNW, it’s to appreciate the Brody Backyard Forest.

Gwen and I think of our place as a private Brigadoon. It appears as its real self very rarely, but the sight, sound, and scent of Brodydoon each spring jacks our life together up to a level neither of us could ever reach without it.

C’mon over and hang out.

Ah-choo!

LYMI,
