I.... I'm not sure I understand what Doris' point is here. I guess having no background information, she's assuming Marty is just going through a teen angst phase that she'll grow out of... which I guess is fair enough. But maybe she should ask what's wrong before offering empty platitudes? Yes, Doris, teenagers do grow up, bearing the scars of abandonment and caring for their PTSD-stricken fathers. It'll all be terrific!
Speaking of growing up (but on a much brighter note), I'd like to take a moment to make an important announcement about our little Maggie, who is all grown up - and getting married on Saturday!! Congrats Mags! We love you! Excuse me, I'm a little verklempt. Talk amongst yourselves. I'll give you a subject: Do you think Maggie will wear awesome bows like Doris' in her hair on Saturday? Discuss.
There, I feel better.
For you readers out there, that means Maggie will be on hiatus for her fab honeymoon (she'll be doing tomorrow's post and then peacing out for a couple of weeks), so Megan and I will be trying to live up to her standards while she's gone (don't worry Maggie, I guarantee nothing important will happen in A3G world in the next couple of weeks). Bear with us as posting times, etc. may be a little funky (especially this weekend when we are celebrating Maggie!)

You're right about not much happening in the A3G universe! Even when something really dramatic happens--remember that adorkable Evan and his surprise "present" that ended up burning down the A3G building with Margo inside?--they just completely gloss over it. As Margo said at the time, "I suppose I should care, but I don't" (3/5/13). Yet, somehow, I do care about A3G. I don't know why. Congratulations on your wedding, and thanks for your awesome blog! It never disappoints!
Congratulations Maggie!
Congratulations!
I, too, have taken to reading this in the comics, which I never did before, just because of the laughs I get here constantly. Thanks, Maggie, and I hope you have a terrific vacation and that your union lasts a heck of a lot longer than those poor women in the A3-G universe.
Meanwhile, I can't wait to see where this story goes. LuAnn gets pimped? I see a sleaze politician looking for a trophy wife. Will she love this new look/life? Or will she stand for her farm girl ethic? Sadly I say, neither. There will be no exposition, no explanation. They will all just be at the ball looking fabulous. Then he'll die in a plane crash. Oh well, it's just comics.
Congratulations Maggie! May your life never be as boring and stupid as an Apartment 3-G plot... well except for the time the three ladies got makeovers!!
...if you like makeovers... I didn't mean you needed a makeover! I've never even seen you!
Sorry. I must've been channeling Gov. Peter!
Good Luck and best wishes for your future happiness!
