Practically perfect...
Gary kicked off his hemp loafers in a hurry because judging from the other items in the foyer, Mary Poppins was in the living room.
Testing the boundaries...
Worried that their lives were getting too orderly, Gary rebelliously installed intentionally-crooked shelves and pulled the butterfly chair out a naughty 5 inches from the table.
Comforts of home...
Elaine hoped that a nice bowl of fruit could lure Gary back from his magical journey into the Land of the Headboard.

Martin and Gareth are watching you…
You're fired...
Yes Elaine, I know you’re supposed to light the logs once they’re in the fireplace, but that’s just not my style.
Blowing smoke...
Elaine, could you give me just 10 minutes of peace and quiet so I can sit by the fire cabinet and rehearse for tomorrow’s jug band concert?

Feeling pooped...
Elaine was relieved to discover what Gary meant by “the dog stool in the kitchen.”
A sailor's life for me...
The new bathroom mirrors overwhelmed Gary with nostalgia for his sea-faring days when he used to reach out of his porthole for a bottle of Zyrtec.

A creative grind...
Gary, if you don’t understand why I need a mortar an pestle in my studio, then you just don’t “get” art.

Team Martin or Team Gareth?
Nuggets of wisdom...
Gary’s years of experience told him that his son could never expect to conquer more than four states with a password as flimsy as “No Girls.”

Shake what your mama gave you...
Gary knew exactly how many strawberry margaritas Elaine had to drink before she’d take her maracas out from under the table.

Gareth is cooking up trouble…
Flights of fancy...
Gary only bought it to justify wearing aviator goggles when he pays the bills.

Growing attached...
I get worried when Gary arranges the canisters in height order, because the next step is him referring to them as “The Canister Family” and becoming grief-stricken when one of them breaks.
Take these broken wings...
Unable to face another night of listening to Gary and Elaine argue about the correct pronunciation of “Nevada,” the bird statue wandered hopelessly to the edge of his mirrored perch.
Snack Attack...(re-post)
Judging by the agonizing cry from the bathroom, Elaine realized she should have informed Gary that their bathroom does not participate in “hospitaliano” and that those are not breadsticks.

Martin and Gareth are at it again…
Bagged down...
Frankly Gary, if it were waterproof I’d bring my purse into the shower with me.
Horsing around...
Gary admitted to being a tad alarmed by the rocking horse’s lack of maternal instincts.

Time to soak in a nice hot tub of Martin and Gareth…
Flew the coop...
Elaine could only hope that Gary would be too distracted by removing twine from all his books to notice that his birdcage was now vacant.

Two for the road...
Gary’s irrational attachment to our sofa, rug, and pool cues is starting to put a damper on our weekend excursions.
Thirst for knowledge...
Gary, will you see if the stack of books would like a refill?

Growing stale...
Elaine, you can keep your mac & cheese. For me the ultimate comfort food will always be a hearty bowl of croutons.

Martin and Gareth would love to have you stop by to visit.
The best idea I've herd...
With Elaine out of town, Gary was forced to have his daily 1:45pm wine and cheese with Linus the ram head.

Living in a bacterial world...
Gary and Elaine are confident 2011 will be the year of “Petri Dish Chic” wall art.

Feeling possessive...
Gary had no idea who The Mather was, but he got the message loud and clear not to mess with his iced tea.
