Pickles by Brian Crane for September 21, 2019

better get Earl some dandruff shampoo and to really launder those pillow cases (and maybe even let Earl sleep on the sofa)

Is he wearing glasses? Is there something on the ceiling worth looking at?

Scratch one good nights sleep.

Copy I’ve got says it should be “purfuit of happineff”.

Earl is picking up heat from the lamp. Move lamp to Opal’s side of bed for she is the one reading ;-)

As we get older it’s the little things that count.

Soothing the savage beast….

Lotion…

SUPER must!

Okay, Earl and Opal, I don’t mean to get personal, but maybe the time has come for separate rooms???? Okay, I mean to get personal. . .

Pursuit of dandruff.

Earl is wearing his glasses because he is making a spectacle of himself.

This is so cute. Both of them tucked into bed together.

Scratching at your head is what makes you happy? You don’t set your standards very high.

Well in a Florida hotel there was that cockroach walking across the ceiling my youngest noticed (comment censored by editor).

This will not make me skritch. This will not make me skritch.

It’s Perfectly Obvious to Me. He is in a Panic Searching His Head for that Spider that He No Longer Sees on the Ceiling Over His Side of the Bed !!! " AAACK ! Where Did It Go !!! " She is Really gonna be Upset when He Throws Back the Covers,Looks in them Real Quick and then Dashes to the Bathroom and starts Dancing in Front of the Mirror.

Well Earl welcome to the itching club….I have had a miserable summer with the a/c on drying my skin and making me itch so much most nights I didn’t sleep at all. I was doing well all week but woke me up last night again, no a/c no fan so I am thinking what I wore on Friday, plus I swept the patios.

It’s like people wanting you to not pick food out of your teeth because they secretly want your teeth to rot out.

There’s NOTHING quite so satisfying as a good scratch!
