Martha's Corner

Dear Martha,

 

First I just wanted to tell you what an honor it is to be writing to you. I always feel like you are watching me, even when i was in college... though i'm sure you would have disapproved of the choices i made. You'll always be my mama 'crowe. Here is my problem. I live with my two best friends, Cody and Princess Lady. It's an interesting situation because they are actually engaged. I set them up if you must know. Just call me matchmaker, I'll answer. But ever since Cody proposed to Princess Lady, I feel like their relationship has strained. It all began when Princess Lady created a knot page for herself. She started getting mail from venues and bridal boutiques addressed to her and I think that really started to freak Cody out. It all became very real. What should I do? They are my best friends...we were like Threes Company for a while. It was great...I mean i know it will be hard finding a dress and tux for my four legged friends...but isn't it true what they say, "Every rose has its thorns?"

 

Signed,

Always Classy Always in Style

 A - Dear ACAIS: Thanks for stopping by Martha's corner. We're glad you're here and always have time to lend an ear for a friend in need. First off, cheers to you for living with an engaged couple for so long. I would think that after a while, it'd be hard to keep up with the daily smooches and constant paw rubs. I think we really need to delve into Cody's love for Princess Lady. Do you think he purposed because he was deeply in love with her or do you think he proposed because she was the only other creature with a permanent fur coat living at your parents house? The easiest solution I can provide for you is one word: VEGAS. Tell C and PL that you're planning a romantic weekend for the three of you and throw your inhibitions to the wind. Get the two lovers liquored up and head to the chapel for a wedding they'll be sure to never remember. If that doesn't work, just take Princess Lady to Vegas and snap a couple of provocative pics of her with other males - humans even. Once those puppies (not PL's children) are posted and tagged on facebook, Cody will be sure to run back. It's a dog-marry-dog world out there.....so stay safe.

MK - Dearest Always Classy, Always in Style:

It is such a treat to hear from you.  I am watching you.  I'm always making sure you are not disparaging anyone and am happy to report, you are a model citizen.  You are in a bit of a petite pickle with your roommates, Cody and Princess Lady, and since you set up these two lovedogs, you're invested somewhat in their relationship. 

 

How devastating for Princess Lady to feel slighted and like that creature of her dreams is suddenly getting cold paws about their upcoming nuptuals.  In typical Three's Company fashion, you as the matchmaker extraordinar, must simply make them come together and realize their true feelings for each other - the ones that solidified the relationship from the beginning.  This might be somewhat of a daunting task, but Mama Crowe has some serious faith in you.  I am sure that with your guidance and mad skillz for seeing the potential for real love, you can help Princess Lady and Cody come to their senses and realize that this an important commitment to each other and that they're doing it for true, pure, love.  And alas, every rose does have it's thorn, Brett Michels would agree, but if he can work it out with his babies' momma after X amount of years, then Princess Lady and Cody are surely on their way to living out their lives in pure puppy happiness.
