It’s “Hermit Day”

Thursday, October 29th, 2009

Ahhh. The beautiful thought of complete solitude. Away from people, distractions, worries and all that other nonsense. Sounds good to me.
Don’t get me wrong, I love my family. I enjoy spending time with them. But there are times I fantasize about living on a large parcel of land in Wyoming (one of the least populous [...]

It’s “Plush Animal Lover’s” Day

Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

I already wrote about my beloved bear, Roger, in an earlier post so I won’t drag you through that again (I can hear you saying “YAY”).
I used to have dozens of stuffed animal “friends” during my youth and each night at prayer time I would “God Bless” each and every one of those stuffed animals [...]

It’s “National Nut Day”

Thursday, October 22nd, 2009

Sometimes you feel like a nut. Sometimes you don’t. In doing a bit of research on National Nut Day I couldn’t find if it was a reference to the food or to a personality trait, so it’s fair game to talk about either one.

Wednesday, October 21st, 2009

Here’s your word of the day: Blatherskite. A blatherskite is one who babbles incessantly about foolish things. I know a few of these types as I’m sure you do, too. They leave 20-minute messages on the answering machine but never really say anything, or they’re trying to insert one kernel of important information into a [...]

It’s “Evaluate Your Life” Day

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009

Okay, so Evaluate Your Life day was actually yesterday, but since today is Brandied Fruit Day, I’m going to back up and do some life evaluating. Brandied Fruit? Seriously. Who would have anything to say about that with the exception of the fruitcake industry?
So. Self-evaluation. Am I happy? Am I satisfied with my appearance? My [...]

Be Bald and Free Day

Wednesday, October 7th, 2009

Sorry I haven’t been keeping up with my National holidays. My brain is jello. I start a sentence only to jump off track – or is it jump the shark? Either way, I’m over it. I am sincerely ready for a new head. Too bad insurance has a strict policy of approving only one head [...]
