Southpaw Jones

Here’s a little jealousy on an overcast Tuesday, when I’d much rather be in bed.

• Want to go to a matinee?

• I’m only doing this because it’s fun. When it stops being fun, I’ll stop doing it.

• Let’s do lunch…in a neighboring state.

• I seriously doubt it’s broken, but even if it is, I ain’t goin’ to no doctor.

• What an inspiring Oprah!

• I was up real late last night…so I had to sleep in.

• Did you soak up that glorious sunshine today?

• I can’t go out tonight…unless you spot me $20.
