This is what it’s like for me and my Dog. No matter how bad a day I’ve had I just come home and cuddle him and all my cares and worries just melt away and I instantly feel like I’m on top of the world. It’s what Calvin himself would call “Fuzz Therapy”. See here https://www.pinterest.ie/pin/226024475018611052/
Watterson only did one Mother’s Day cartoon in the whole run of his strip. It just wasn’t that good and may have showed he doesn’t like forced sentiments. (Calvin wanted his allowance raised.)This strip has a nice ending though, even for the mother.

Reminds me of a Robert Frost poem:
The way a crow shook down on meA dust of snow from a hemlock treeHas given my heart a change of moodAnd saved some part of a day I had rued.

Too bad the long ones at school have to be on Sunday when there really is no school.

Calvin, that’s nothing. Wait until you grow up and work in an office setting!

Walking home in the rain used to be the best part of going to school.

Why is the bully forcing Calvin to give him his lunch money after lunch?

My wife was just told that her ‘work from home’ has an indeterminate end date. Those 15 sec. commutes to the second floor are great.

Love this one! The fifth panel with the duck is hilarious! I wonder if that dream Calvin’s having is the same one he talked about in THIS strip?

I wonder if Watterson’s school days were as bad as Calvin’s?

No Mother’s Day reference. Kind of surprised

Amazing. Calvin has mastered the skill of Lucid Dreaming at an early age. It took me years to learn that.

Calvin’s sleeping eyes in the second panel caught my imagination on the first day of office after lockdown for a month.
