Another Month Dawns

Holy crap, it's July already! June sort of slipped away while I wasn't paying attention, leaving me to wake up today and realize it was all gone. Continuing the recent trend, June was my lowest blogging output to date (56 posts). On the other hand, it was also my ninth month at it, so clearly some of the novelty's long since worn off and whatever I blog about now must be the real deal. Or something like that.

Today's Canada Day, which doesn't really mean a whole lot anymore, but there's nothing wrong with celebrating the birth of our country. When you consider that we became our own nation peacefully, without the usual bloodshed and angst that goes along with such things, we should be proud! Let the U.S. have its slavery, and civil wars, and battles for independence, and horrible record of bigotry and racism... we don't need 'em! (Although our hands aren't exactly spotless in many of those areas.)

Anyway, we're halfway through the long Canada Day weekend, after which I have four days of work to survive before entering Vacation Mode... and starting to study Silver Age comic trivia!
