It has. And Happy Easter (Monday) all!
So, I've been spending most of my online moments at The Comics Curmudgeon. I've gone back two years into the archive. I went home for Easter, took out some of the cartoon collections we have around the house, and realized that I've started viewing them in an appreciative and critical way. I'm enjoying the viewpoint too. I understand why Calvin & Hobbes was so good. I always liked it, but now seeing the expression in the drawings, the pacing of the panels, the grip of language. It's fantastic.
Random overheard question: Can having your house too hot cause your brain to scramble?
Back to the topic of what I've been doing. I'm taking a French course through Acadia. I'm mostly bilingual, but it's a credit, and I'm learning new things about grammar (rather, things I'd forgotten). I'll be wrapping it up soon. In more news, I may be staying here for a little while longer. I'll be in the Maritimes till at least the Grad date, so I might as well earn a little cash doing so. My boss has offered me the chance to do so.
I've been interrupted twice during this post, and am calling it a night. More to follow. Eventually.

We don't have Easter Monday in the states. I was back to work :(
Bummer. Of course, this is government work, so we get every possible holiday off.
The husband of the family here had to work Easter night so that the theatre was available for matinees on Easter Monday.
