Yukon, ho!

# 5

You know how people used to tell you, "you'll find out when you're older"? 
What I've found out is that most of it's not worth finding out about. 

Today is my first day of Winter Term, and I think I've made a mistake. Turns out I'm NOT ready to come back from break. Well, actually I am, but I'm also a little intimidated by my classes this quarter.
I felt a bit like Calvin in Calvin & Hobbes after he's realized that the two sandwiches he packed may not last as long as he thought, and his toboggan can't travel when there's no snow. Except, I'm making for a graduate degree instead of the Yukon. Perhaps more useful, but also less exciting. 

And so, without further ado, I give you: 





Because, really, is there anything better than reading Calvin & Hobbes in the winter?
I think we should have a national Calvin & Hobbes holiday. And I think that everyone should have a holiday from school and work. 
In fact, I think it should be tomorrow. :)

  1. Okay. But only we can have a Far Side holiday too. That's my favorite.
    PS I read your blog every day. It's not going out into a void.
