just a note to say thanks for all your kind sentiments and well wishes. You are all amazing. A friend shared this. Thanks, Oscar.

Dear friends, this is purely coincidental and has nothing to do with Steven leaving, but after blogging about Mary Worth for over 15 years, I need to take a little break. I'm not sure when, or if, I'll return. Everything is fine personally. Things are so great, in fact, that suddenly Mary Worth has little meaning for me anymore. I know, it's hard to believe. So I'm taking a break. I don't know

People say on the third date, that's when you see a therapist together.

Careful, Estelle, it may just be a hot flash. Hard to tell the difference sometimes.

You didn't, Estelle? Did you even read the website you recommended, Not One More Vet? Or did you just look at the happy pictures? Ed: "... Willing to have whine with their cheese." Estelle: "I'm sorry; I don't have any cheese."

I'm sorry, every time Dr. Ed talks about euthanasia, I can only think of this and start laughing:

Gosh, I hope Steven is doing okay. I worry about that kid. He spent years in training, and now he's going to start over. At least I hope he's starting over, and that permanent time-off isn't some sort of euphemism for, you know, moving to West Virginia.

This goes against everything I know about adult cats and dogs. Everything the Humane Society counsels as well. But I guess Ed and 'Stell can move in together.

Dr. Ed, you're going to need to clean your shirt sleeve very carefully.

If this strip has taught me anything, it is that patience doesn't always pay off.

Maybe tomorrow Estelle will ask Ed over for dinner.

Faint of heart... Is that why Steven took time off? He's faint of heart? I've got a feeling in my tummy-brain that someone better keep a close watch at Lookout Point.

Please don't spill your hot cat coffee on your lap, Estelle! You might drop your phone in it.

I'm fairly certain we are headed toward a thoroughly thought-through and compelling story about the risk of suicide among veterinarians. How many lives will be saved, I do not know. It all depends on how many depressed veterinarians read Mary Worth every day.

I used to take piano lessons as a kid, but I quit because they were so boring to me. So what I really want to do is watch someone else practice the piano. Maybe tomorrow, Estelle can refill the water in her vase. That would be really interesting, too.

Okay, I did check it out. And, uh, it is a suicide crisis site for veterinarians. Estelle must have picked up on signs I didn't spot. I'm sure Ed will really appreciate the recommendation.

Gee, Mare, great advice. Earth shattering. You are really good at relationships. Without you, how would Estelle ever know what to do or say?

Oh, now you really LIKE Ed. I thought you said you were in love with him. I know those are not exclusive emotions, but it sure sounds like you are downgrading this relationship to avoid being hurt. Don't let your fast failures discourage you so much, Estelle.

We've been calling this one for weeks, now. Ed needs someone to organize his mess of an Animal Hospital, and Estelle needs a man. Time to reenter the workforce and spend all of your time together. Plus, you could get rid of Steven, which would make everyone happier... including Steven.
