Garfield by Jim Davis for May 13, 2024

And vacations love us back!

It is today.

Garfield has evaded Monday!

Vacations are never long enough.

And you don’t want to worry about it…….

He needed a vacation to forget about MONDAY the 13th!

I love days like this.

Before I read it, I thought it was gonna end with Garfield saying he hates Mondays; but I couldn’t think of what could possibly be going wrong with this Monday for him to say that.

It looks to me like Jon has a hole in his straw, right at the bend. Jon, of course, seems oblivious.

Of course you do.

It’s Monday, and Garfield loves it?

Looks like it’s Sun-day, going by Jon’s oversized shades.

Now this very anticlimatic Monday the 13th.

It’s Monday, Jon. And your cat is happy.

For Jon, how is block 1 different than any other day ??? He’s freaking clueless.

The only thing missing from Jon’s vacation is a good prank by Garfield.

Sounds like retirement, even though we keep ourselves busy…the names of days have no meaning so they do get lost in the shuffle.

My vacation starts today, and I’ve joined my cats for a week of eat, sleep, play and repeat

Maybe organize the closet in the spare room

Maybe

You know it’s a good vacation when Garfield doesn’t mind about Monday

It is Cincinnati Day 5/13… Cincinnati’s area code is 513.

They’re pretty decent

I guess as along as it isn’t the day he’s supposed to be back to work, it’s okay.

Just like retirement, lol!

What vacation?! You don’t even work!

I’ve not had a vacation in over 5 years. Last one was 30 days spent in Israel and Egypt. Day off here and there, but an actual “no need to worry about anything vacation away from home” nope. August will be 6 years!

Me Too!

That happened to be one day when I happened to be taking a long Christmas vacation from work. I ended up asking my Alexa-device what day it was.

“I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT DAY IT IS”

(imagines a different version of this part of the dialogue of this cartoon)

THIS DAY HAS BEEN SO GOOD; I HAVE ALMOST FORGOTTEN TODAY WAS…WAS…

I don’t think I’d be laying outside in a t-shirt and shorts. Still a few inches of snow on the ground from the foot we had yesterday. But, give it time. The sun just came up, and it’s supposed to be 60’s here later…

Vacations must be one of the few times for Garfield when Mondays don’t suck. But then again, Garfield has been more or less “vacationing” going on 46 years now.

At least Garfield doesn’t know that today is Monday

At last, a vacation that Jon and Garfield can both enjoy.

Brandon!

I’m retired and frequently have trouble remembering what day it is.

I’m on permanent vacation. It’s good to be retired!

Since, when has Garfield forgot a Monday?!

Dorky sunglasses.

Cue Monday in 3… 2… 1…

Is Garfield going to find out it is Monday the 13th???

i wonder just how rich jon is, we never see him work, he’s got a nice house, can take vacation, and most important he can feed garfield

Tell Garfield it’s Monday.

Me too !

So that’s how you escape a Monday!

I see it to!

is it me or the new Garfield comics aren’t the same. but I still tune in lol

Garfield. you are always on vacation

Garfield you are always on vacation

A good vacation is a great way to neutralize the dreaded “Garfield Monday!!!!”

Did Jon need a vacation from his vocation?

I’ve been retired for years. If it wasn’t for my laptop menu bar I might not remember the month.

Flipping A!!!

Me either!

Says the cat eternal vacation.

Substitute “retirement” for “vacation”. We have a day clock so we can tell what day of the week it is.
