Hello fellow Calvin and Hobbes fans!

About this community and how I post the comic strip… The comics are posted in chronological order on the day (usually) they were released. Posting them to match the release date adds a bit of fun and nostalgia to match the experience of reading them in the newspaper for first time. Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. It really sucked when I missed a day. Only years later, when I got the books was I able to catch up on the missed strips.

Calvin and Hobbes is a daily American comic strip created by cartoonist Bill Watterson that was syndicated from November 18, 1985, to December 31, 1995. Commonly cited as "the last great newspaper comic",[2][3][4] Calvin and Hobbes has enjoyed broad and enduring popularity, influence, and academic and philosophical interest… Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calvin_and_Hobbes

What do you mean by "she gave a lot of material to work with"?

The different things she did while sleep walking were pretty incredible: navigating steps, getting supplies, having conversations. As a younger child, I thought these things were hilarious and enjoyed them as sibling conversational material. Not really in a mean way, we just poked fun at each other. I rolled out of bed a lot. I am sure she had material from me 😆

My brother would only do this when he had to pee while asleep. It was like he had our house perfectly mapped out in his head except for the location of our toilets.

Haha I worked with an adult who would do this. Mostly on lamps, they didn't seem to happy about it and sometimes did it in front of others.
