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.

Panel 3 = Exactly why Smart Men don’t go “Shopping” with significant others! remember : Women “Shop”, Men “Acquire”

It’s more like, “men buy; women collect.”

OMG, not Charlene too?! I had such hopes for her. What, they’re not ranting about the purses being black?? Slaves to fashion, nothing, they’re slaves to the retailers whims.
And, by the way, the store is expecting the whole population of a tri-state area to come in and buy a simple new black purse? No shoes? No flashy dazzely funky clothes that they’ll never wear? No hats? What is the world coming to?
Yup, here we are, 3:00 a.m. You know, Cathy seems twice as nutty when it’s way too early in the morning.

I’m not a huge shopper, too many more important things to do.
Good morning legaleagle, frightenup, GSmom, Aaron and the rest.

Reorganizing Cathy’s whole life starts with a simple new black purse? Okay. The male brain is just not made to understand certain female brain things. Trouble is, Charlene was Cathy’s last hope at sanity. Sad to see her corrupted. Sigh
Morning Susan (maybe already here?) when you arrive. Morning frightenup LOL still loving the Halloween name. I’m thinking I can do better than last year’s ScarinAaron. Hi fellow Cathyites when you come ’round.

Cathy should just move into the mall.
After all, she spends more time there than in her home.
Good morning, Aaron (I can remember calling you “AaronClaus” at Xmas time), Drs. Billy and KFG, Lightenup, Frightenup, Legaleagle, GsMom, and all the rest of the “Cathy”-ologists.

Where do women get the idea that making a new purchase is going to help get them organized??

They are going to be there all day…too many purses to choose from. I bet they can’t buy just one purse and get out of the store. Hello to all of our fellow Cathy nuts.

I’m not a big shopper either. I just shop when I need something, and it’s usually a quick trip and a variation on what I already have. My husband makes fun of me because he bought me a fancy purse about 12 years ago, and I’ve used it twice.
Good morning, Veridian, legaleagle, Billy, Shyygirl, Aaron, Susan, Wolf Emperor and mollie!
@Billy – Why were you up so early/late? worried about Aaron? :-(
@Aaron – I like ScarinAaron!!

Purchasing something with get the endorphins going. Then she can work on her new life. Good Day all!

Hmmm. I wonder if I should get a new purse. The one I have [and only one] is still perfectly good, but it seems that if a person doesn’t have several purses, pairs of shoes etc. they must not be keeping up to speed. Call me a slowpoke.

I don’t really get how the “simple” black purse can jump start the organizing. Myself? I’m into buying pretty baskets, boxes, and containers to get inspired. But as a mentor reminds me, “You just can’t organize junk! You’ve got to throw it out!” Still hard for me sometimes.
Hello to *veridian, legaleagle, dr. billy, shygirl, Aaron, Susan, Wolf Emperor, mollie, frightenup, ncalifgirl, serenaskitty, and the rest of the Cathy Clan yet to come!

I hate to be the one to point this out to you, Cathy and Charlene, but . . . each of you is already carrying a black purse . . .
Do you intend to put the new, wrapped version inside the old to transport it home?

@Anona Mouse
Doh! (as Homer Simpson says, which is about all know about The Simpsons). I missed that entirely. Oh how lame! VERY good eye, Anona Mouse!
Send these two straight home and to bed without any supper!

There are a lot of men who collect. It’s just other stuff (tools, cars, electronic gadgets, stereo stuff, comics, antiques, etc.) But wait, I collect some of that stuff, too.
