Julie Larson began writing The Dinette Set comic in 1990, then called Suburban Torture, offering a satire on middle class culture. The Dinette Set became syndicated in 1997. When asked where Julie gets all of her ideas, she admits there is only one way to write a daily comic: write about what you know. "I make no bones about who’s really talking in The Dinette Set," says Julie, who is writer, director and cast of The Dinette Set. "If we can’t make fun of ourselves, who will?"

Good Morning All

A good time was had by all.
The highlight was when Marg tried to cook her “red snapper”
Thank God Don kept her off the grill.

Why does Burl want to wax his turtle?
Leaky…. Good morning!
I didn’t think you’d be on your feet so early…
or at any time today.
And I didn’t think
they’d let Marg out…er… that Marg would be in town for the party…And Don can move pretty fast in spite of that ankle bracelet, can’t he?
What would they do without friends like you….
and Officer Kaminski and his patrol car.

I see Julie realised we’re not buying the “C” cup….
even D doesn’t seem up to the task.
Burl’s time is very valuable, you know…
can’t waste it on upscale places like Target when he might miss a 2-fer bin at the dollar store.

Waitress (in a loud voice): Who has the Red Snapper?
.
(As all conversations cease) and no one answers.

As to your insomnia: less Pecan Pie and coffee with Baileys before bedtime…..but what a finish to that meal!

Leaky… Tell me a*out it!
And Finale… I so wish that were it.

I’m always thinking pleasant thoughts at bedtime (never nighttime news or crime shows) so I fall asleep in a snap.
Even coffee near bedtime never bothered me (but no stimulants in my current routine – tho’ my man claims that the other seasonings I use are stimulants (cinnamon, ginger, cayenne etc) Many of the same spices I use (turmeric, oregano) are IN some of the supplements I take.

Leaky’s avatar looks just like the view out my upstairs window this morning (sun was just coming over distant mountains). I now have 2 weather icons on my desktop for real time and showing 75 here AND Chicago. But here 75 is cool (if not chilly) while there it is more toward the muggy side (not quite as bad as Florida).

Burl would only be able to wax the sides of his car, as he couldn’t possibly reach to the middle of the hood or top with that pot belly in between.

He just wants to check prices. Maybe he hasn’t got a turtle yet.
You know Burl, figures all the odds.

I doubt BURL would ever wax his car…… I don’t bother any more either….
Skip the auto supply isle and join JOY in the snack/cookie isle…. ! ! !

I don’t imagine Julie will continue the thread about the trees to block the view. I just uploaded more to my Flickr and wanted to share the actual 9 arborvitae I used to block my messy neighbor.
