Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for January 10, 2019

And that’s why you spend most of your time with a tiger.

One thing I love about the snow strips is that Watterson has a lot less drawing to do for them. The blank space is snow!

Savoring hot chocolate w/marshmallows in front of a blazing fire is better Calvin.

At first glance, Watterson seems a bit lazy in his drawing and the pun isn’t even funny, but damn, it is true, hurray for the bad mood. By the way, we were lucky to view a nice fiery sky this morning, so no bad mood for me.

Someone still has the “after Christmas” blues.

That’s why I live in Seattle. The cold gray rainy day are perfect for melancholia.

Misery loves company and ambiance.

I can relate to Calvin’s thought.

Probably why I moved from Seattle to Florida.

Maybe winter days are gray if you walk around looking up but they can be very pretty if you are walking though the woods.

Something there is that doesn’t love a wall, /That sends the frozen-ground-swell under it, /And spills the upper boulders in the sun; /And makes gaps even two can pass abreast. Robert Frost (I think)

Is Calvin an optimist or a pessimist?

Clearly Calvin is not an Elf,

That is why I spend them in Yuma.

Don’t underestimate the value of a good bad mood.

Indeed they do.

Crash into a tree or two with your tobaggan, Calvin, and you’ll feel much better!

I like cold winter days much better in FL, since we only have them for a few weeks instead of 6 months.

I like the cold gray (WITH snow!!!) days, too; they allow my soul to wander.

I wouldn’t know. Nebraska hasn’t gotten snow since November.

I love such days. Not sullen to me nor am I sullen. He is sullen all too much.
