Sometimes I wonder who comes up with the names of some of
these special days we celebrate (or don’t celebrate, as may be the case.)
Some of the
observances are things I enjoy more than just once a year – and some I’ll NEVER
celebrate.
Just this
week, there are all kinds of special days.
Tuesday was National Senior Citizens’ Day. Since I’m a senior citizen by most standards,
I like this one, although I haven’t found anything to let me know exactly how
to mark this special day. As a matter of
fact, I appreciate being a senior citizen every time I get a discount on
something for being one! I’ll celebrate
saving some money any time.
Friday is
National Waffle Day. I think that one
has something to do with the invention of the waffle iron in the United
States. However, it seems that some of
our politicians celebrate waffling every single day!
Saturday
has two observances: National Kiss and Make Up Day (now that could be interesting) and National Second-hand Wardrobe
Day. A second-hand wardrobe could
contain hand-me-downs or consignment shop finds. Either way, I’ve been enjoying such clothing
for a long, long time. And, in this
economy, I think being able to find second-hand clothing and items for the home
is cause for true celebration. It also
makes good sense.
Sunday is
Go Topless Day. No, I’m not celebrating that one, nor do I want to be around
anyone who is.
