Thanks to markem for letting everyone know that yesterday was Penguin Awareness day. It got me to thinking about some of the obscure "holidays" that I celebrate. For example, International Talk Like A Pirate Day. It occurs every year in mid-September, but I often miss out because it falls off my radar. The same goes for Anything Covered in Chocolate Day and a handful of other random yet delightful days set aside to celebrate some of my favorite things.
So here it is... a thread to help us all remember those unknown and often forgotten holidays and observances. Need an "excuse" to light up a stick you've been saving for a "special day"? My hope is that this thread will give us a daily reason to celebrate being on the right side of the dirt. January 21, 2011 ~ Hat Day (Third Friday in January) ~ National Hugging Day ~ Squirrel Appreciation Day How will you celebrate? ![]()

Absolutely, Pete!!
Personally, I'm excited to have a reason to wear my new hat. It'll keep me warm while I chase the furry lil bastages down and give them their hugs. ![]()

Can it be considered appreciation if I relocate a few squirrels far far far away. Like a vaca.

It has just been brought to my attention that today is also Cheese Appreciation Day. As if hats, squirrels, and hugs weren't mayhem enough, throw in a wheel of Brie or a slice of Cheddar to further bring joy to your heart.

I was a slacker over the weekend, so I missed National Blonde Brownie Day and National Measure Your Feet Day.
![]() Today's holiday is: Compliment Day! Tell your boss you like their tie. Tell your significant other they're smelling particularly pleasant. Tell your mail carrier you liked the way they handled that snarky terrier 3 houses down. Get out there, my lovely sisters and brothers of the leaf, and spread it on thick. Oh and before I forget to tell you.... ![]()

Here's a few that I'm trying to get national funding for;
Feb 12 - Ask a question for which you do not want an answer day. March 18 - Limp handshake day. April 22 - Write false entries on a Wikepedia page day. June 8 - Only use the heel of bread on a sandwich day. October 13 - Pretend you are running from monsters day. MCS
