Yeah, I feel bad for him too. The poor guy's life is a total train wreck! I'm starting to think that Artie might not make it to 45 years old. It's really too bad becasue for a while there he seemed to be pulling his shit together.
So did Artie say exactly what happened with him and Dana? I started listening to the show (the replay) a bit late today.
He is so against going to a shrink that he put on his "Italian Male" persona and basically told her that "no broad is going to get me to go to a shrink and if you don't like it, there's the door". She walked out and hasn't been heard from since. He's also been pretty uncompromising about the dog.
Artie is good at being Artie. He is in no way ready or capable of surviving a marriage. He derailed this relationship from the start. Otherwise he would have to participate in the relationship in some capacity.
I hope he doesn't follow in the footsteps of John Belushi.
For some reason I think that Artie sees Belushi as some kind of heroic figure in the world of comedy. So, needless to say, I think he finds the idea of leading a very destrructive lifestyle sort of romantic.
