Dec 19 and so on...

Here is the rest of the months worth of weirdo holidays. Even though this month has been hectic, and I would probably be better about it next time, I think I will do January's holidays in one post. Maybe weekly. We will see. Also I am hoping to be able to sit down more in the new year. The better to post regularly, I say!

December 19 is "Oatmeal Muffin Day"
December 20 is "Game Day"
December 21 is several for the price of one.
  • Look At The Bright Side Day
  • National Flashlight Day
  • National French Fried Shrimp Day
  • Hamburger Day
December 22 is "Humbug Day"
December 23 is "Roots Day"
December 24 is "National Egg Nog Day"
December 25 is not only Christmas, it is also "National Pumpkin Pie Day"
December 26 is "National Whiner's Day"
December 27 is "National Fruitcake Day"
December 28 is "Card Playing Day" and "National Chocolate Day"
December 29 is " Pepper Pot Day"
December 30 is "The Festival For Enormous Changes At The Last Minute" and "National Bicarbonate Of Soda Day"
Last but certainly not least is
December 31 with "Unlucky Day"

Merry Christmas!!!

Aliright Slacker, Get To It.

I have come to find that it is nearly impossible for me to post everyday unless I cheat and line several up in advance. I am just so into hanging out with my son while I have the opportunity, that time gets away from me. Here are the last few, and today's of course, weirdo holidays.

December 10 was "The Festival For The Souls Of Dead Whales" Day
December 11 was "National Noodle Ring Day"
December 12 was "National Ding-A-Ling Day"
December 13 was "Ice Cream And Violins Day"
December 14 was "National Bouillabaisse Day"
December 15 was "National Lemon Cupcake Day"
December 16 was "National Chocolate Covered Anything Day"

and today, drum roll please...

December 17, 2008 is "Underdog Day" woohoo, a holiday just for me and my brethren! Today is also "National Maple Syrup Day".

Decmeber 9

Today is "National Pastry Day". I have found it on several website, but alas, cannot find the origins of yet another weirdo holiday. Too bad I didn't know it until this morning, I spent most of the night baking!

A few missed holidays

December 5, 2008 was National Sacher Torte Day

December 6, 2008 was National Gazpacho Day and Mitten Tree Day

December 7, 2008 was National Cotton Candy Day, it was also Pearl Harbor Day in the land of non-weirdo holidays

Today is bum bum buh bum, Take It In The Ear Day.

Okay, so no one really knows where "Take It In The Ear Day" originated, but it has been marked on Calendar's for a while now. Also, it is not really known what the "it" actually is. Some people even wonder if ear is even the right word. Anyway, it's always December 8.

Thought you'd be interested to know that...

I've decided to add a section to this blog titled "The More You Know". It will be random facts that I think are interesting, and I would like to share. For instance, did you know the fingernails on your dominant hand grow faster than the other.
