It just hit me

On my Google homepage, I have a feed of Calvin and Hobbes comics. As I was looking at today's offering, I tried to remember if I'd read it. I must have, since I own all the collections. However, I just couldn't remember what comes of this particular wacky adventure. I wondered if this had been one of the comics my Grandpa had saved for me, back when it was in the Minneapolis paper and not the St Paul. Then it hit me that my grandpa's gone. Twisted a little bit inside. Felt weird. Not like I was about to cry or get caught up or something, just, well, weird.
