   This is one of Agnes’ great talents….
   thinking up supremely unlikely disasters to fret about… or even to take extreme precautions to prevent.

   
   I’m sure she has many 3-ring binders full of her drawings and scribbled musings on, say,
   fences she should build to protect herself from runaway rhinoceroses…
   and Russian phrases she might need if she picks up the phone and it’s Vladimir Putin.

   
   But not tomorrow’s arithmetic homework.

   Agnes should work in advertising…the skill of coming up with solutions to problems that don’t really exist and inventing devices for made up problems.

   Reminds me of Restless Leg Syndrome. Come on, someone seriously decided that was an issue?

   The phrase “winking like a methed-up bar queen” is just one reason I love this strip!

   I’m wondering how Agnes is familiar with the winking techniques of “a method-up bar queen.”

    So inappropriate. Where are these kids hanging out that the know what a “methed up bar queen” looks like? Seriously. I can be there in an hour.

    As some one who suffers from it, yes, it is a real problem. Your legs begin to twitch and then actually kick. You can’t sleep and neither can your partner. Anti-convulsants are the only thing that helps. AND, it has been documented as a medical condition since the 1300s.

    What would Agnes do if she didn’t have Trout to tell her fantasies to?
    Maybe she’d become another Calvin.

    Should a cramp in the muscles controlling the eye lids it could be a problem. I have never heard of it but that means nothing if it has to someone somewhere some time.

    There is something called blepharospasm which causes the eyelids to twitch or close. Sometimes it’s hard for people with this to keep their eyes open. So, can’t drive. They use botox injections to treat it.
