Yet I read the damn thing every day because of her! I can't get my morning paper and not look at that comic strip and think of my grandmother for a minute.
A lifetime of reading the Family Circus: the Curse of My Grandma.

The Curse of My Grandma
My grandma passed away about this time of year in 2007. She loved the comic strip Family Circus. She would go on about how cute it was and family members would give her Family Circus books for birthdays/Christmas etc. I find the Family Circus to be incredibly lame and overly sweet and wholesome to the point of being infuriating.

Now hale, there could be much worse things with which to be cursed. :)
My mom would sing these corny songs around the house and she had an adage for every instance. I find myself doing the same thing. As they say, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree... there I go again! lol
kk is right , I hardly consider reading family circus a curse.
Now your family being a circus would be a real curse.
Hale, you made me smile with this one...thanks for showing us that emotional responses are just fine...I read Pickles for the same reason...
Aw, Family Circus is so cute with the four little kids. I especially like the name 'Barfy' for a dog.
