Transcript:
Cathy: You look great, Irving. Irving: Thanks, Cathy. You too. Cathy: In what way? Irving: Trick question! Cathy: Notice anything different about me? Irving: Um...Wow! You've lost weight! Cathy: No! I'm not even thinking about my weight! Didn't you notice?? Irving: You look thinner! Really! I noticed! Cathy: I'm not looking for size-based compliments, Irving! I've evolved beyond caring about "thin" or "not thin"! Irving: Um... Cathy: I've achieved a vibrant, well-balanced state of being!! Irving: Um..Um... Cathy: You're supposed to notice my new CONTENTMENT!! How could you not notice my new contentment?!! Irving: Every year it gets more dangerous to be a man... Cathy: Which part of me looks thinner?

Oh, sorry, Cathy. Irving forgot that he’s supposed to be able to read your mind! EYEROLL

Thinner on brains maybe, but that’s it. Cathy, you make my head hurt. Not even your mom is going to look at you and say “My, how content you look.” Irving is heading for home vs to the men’s room.
Morning Susan — Sunday’s Cathy seem to be independent of the rest of the week, so chances are that Irving is still bald.
Beauty of a day out there, a good 10 degrees cooler than yesterday. LMB and I are going to the park to play soccer. Hello fellow Cathyites. Is it nice where you are too? :-)

This is an AACK day for Irving, tomorrow it’s back to bald for him and Cathy can be horrified once more at his lack of hair!!
This is a much cooler day…so nice to get jeans out again!! Morning to all early arrivals can’t wait to get outside today!!

Happy Sunday all. It’s beautiful here in N. Calif. too. On my way for a walk soon. And why is it that some people think you should be able to read their mind? Crazy. lol

It was sunny for a while earlier on, but now the wind has got up, and rain isn’t far away.
Oddly enough I do know somebody who has a perpetual look of contentment – and he’s always snuggling into my arms to tell me how happy he is with every aspect of his furry life.
That purr helps, too. He’s the most contented creature I’ve ever known, human or otherwise!

There’s just no pleasing her a lot of the time. [Eye-roll]
On a related note, not sure if you all saw yesterday’s “Stone Soup” comic, but I thought of you instantly:

Happy Sunday.

I got up earlier today to make these for my company crew. Billy and I managed to find some really good strawberries a couple days ago.

Cathy’s mouth is still too big, so that can’t be it. Hmm… I’ll with thinner on her rationality, if that’s possible. I feel for Irving in this one because he tried to pay her a compliment.Hello everyone! I started this post this morning, and am just now finishing it hours later, so I have no idea who has posted in the meantime. So… a big hi to the entire Cathy corner crew, and I hope you had a great Sunday!

Yummy, the cupcakes look delish!!

We had raspberries today, but without the cupcakes or cream. So it’s nice to have the virtual kind to finish off with!

Hi rest of the Cathyites!! — Cathy outdoes herself today. Irving wouldn’t notice if she was starkers — let alone content! Not to mention that her “contentment” didn’t last very long. Go meditate Cathy.
