Stepford!
Holy crap! Blondie never ceases to amaze me. Check out the fancy spread she's got set up for breakfast! A tablecloth and fresh flowers! I don't even eat dinner in such a fancy manner. And, she's all dressed up with her hair done, a cute blouse, and nice shoes . . . What time do you suppose she wakes up in order to get everything "just so?" What's wrong with her? I know that once upon a time I thought I'd want to marry Blondie (if I were a lesbian, and that was allowed, and she was real; but, I'm not, it's not, and she's not). Still, I wanted to marry her, because it would be nice to have someone just taking care of all my needs like she does.
But I think I've changed my mind. Living with someone like Blondie would FREAK ME OUT. Why is she dressed so nicely so early in the morning? Why does breakfast involve a tablecloth and fresh flowers? If I were married to Blondie, I'd probably be required to speak in the morning. Blondie probably wouldn't approve of my coffee and toast with Nutella breakfast. I bet she wouldn't let me sit on the couch and read the paper. Nooooo . . . I would have to sit (all dressed up) at the table, and eat a hot meal and have a conversation. Dagwood is lucky that his car pool came and rescued him.
There's definitely someting wrong with her. If I ever went through so much trouble to have a nice breakfast, and then my husband jetted out, and ATE MY BEGONIAS, I wouldn't take it with Blondie's sangfroid. I'd be pissed! Blondie went through all that effort . . . My guess though is that she puts in this effort every morning, and so it's no big deal. Again: she's a FREAK.
Could "He even ate my begonias" be sort of euphemism? Hee hee. "He even ate my begonias."
I am going to start up some sort of wacky comic conversation:
It's not fear . . . it's the French Horn
He even ate my begonias.
It's lunch time. (BWAH HA HA)
These are all part of the dialogue, but I don't have a "plot" yet.

Blondie...inspiration for Bree Van de Kamp? The linens, the 'all put-together by 7:30am', etc. In that case, search Dagwood's past for heretofore unsuspected dalliances, marital aids and/or placibo heart meds. Perhaps some clues exist here for next season's DH plot twists? Does Blondie have a passion for handguns as well?
Well, does this strip have a creepy pharmacist?
Is Alexander secretly gay?
Does Cookie have a crush on the hot teen gardner (too bad he's busy doing Mrs. Woodley next door, eh?)
Ooooh . . . good points. I used to think it would be cool to be married to Bree, too. Then, I realized she'd leave me on the steps in the throes of a heart attack, while she made up the bed!
YIKES!
I hearby christen Blondie Blondbree.
Hey, I wanted to stop in and say "what up." I've been busy looking for a new job lately. I wonder if Mr. Dithers is hiring?
John --
You should get a job as a full time cartoonist -- if the world was perfect, which I guess it's not. That's why I have to read Marmaduke everyday.
Oh, full-time cartoonist would be my dream job. There's not exactly much money to be made drawing funnies, though, unless you're syndicated! *crosses fingers*
*cannot uncross fingers*
