Newlyweds Cathy and Irving navigate the treacherous waters of couple-hood. From pampered pets to prying parents, they’ve got a lot to learn! Wedding or not, it’s still all about Cathy - she personifies the young career woman and her typical daily obstacles. Ice cream, panic attacks, stress and love are all in a day’s work. We read, we identify, we laugh. Who could ask for more?
Cathy is the Everywoman. She deals with diets, self-esteem, in-laws, and letting her husband know that she is the boss. Everyone can identify with her shopping, bills, taxes, planning for the future and coping with her husband’s incessant computer golf games. Whether you are a newlywed, single, or have been married for decades, all will enjoy the daily predicaments of Cathy and Irving.

Well, if Alex really was all that, Cathy, why didn’t you marry him? Oh, that’s right — he was too young for you and you had nothing in common. Or are you really just trying to make Irving jealous by pretending that you still find Alex attractive as “the one who got away”? EYEROLL

He’s right though….its those shorts. With tux and bowtie. Ew.

The grass is always greener, isn’t it, Cathy? As soon as someone gets married (or in a relationship), they always seem more appealing.
Although Irving is being a bit of a green-eyed monster… If you make a point of calling an ex- dorky, then you’re showing your insecurities.
Good morning, legaleagle and GrimmaTheNome!
Good morning, Susan and Aaron!

Irving’s one to talk with that band-aid, those shades and the glare coming off his head!
Good morning legaleagle and Grimma.
Hello lightenup, Gsmom, Aaron and the rest.

Paraphrased Forrest Gump: Dorky is as dorky does. And that’s also the pot calling the kettle black. (I think that one is older than all of us Cathyites put together).
Morning Susan when you arrive. I saw you elsewhere this a.m. Hi lightenup I’ve been neglecting you for a couple of days. Sorry sorry I’ll make up for it later with dessert :-) Time to sleep a bit fellow Cathyites. See you later . . .

If anyone looks dorky, it’s Irving, with that stupid band-aid on his shaved head!
Good morning, Aaron (I have arrived!), Drs. Billy and KFG, Lightenup, Legaleagle, GsMom, and the rest of the “Cathy” cult.

Or, as Erma Bombeck once so famously said: The grass is always greener over the septic tank. Good to keep in mind. (Please tell me someone else remembers Erma…) Happy Friday to legal eagle, grimma, lightenup, shygirl, Aaron, Susan, mollie, ncalifgirl, and all the rest of the Cathy Clan yet to come!

Good Day everyone.
Finally back. Don’t know what kicked me off but OK now.
Probably a computer gremlin.
Hope all stays well for the CC. (clan, co., cult, Clathyites, crew,
etc.)
Looking forward to AArons’ snack for the day.
Have a great weekend.
