What Do YouTube?
Last week I shared a list of websites that I have been visiting to try to keep what little sanity I have left. But, I left one off. That would be YouTube. I admit, I’m late to the YouTube party. Of course I used it from time to time, but it was never on my top 10 list of websites… Read more »
Panic or Picnic?
Today is both International Panic day AND International Picnic Day. Both seem uniquely relevant in 2020. I can make cases for celebrating either one, so I will let you decide which one makes the most sense to you. Let me know how it goes!
2020 Distractions
Let’s face it- 2020 has been a complete and utter dumpster fire. And it’s not even half over yet. UGH. Today I’m going to do something a little different- I’m sharing a few websites that exist for the sole purpose of offering a diversion from the shit show around us, and remind us that yes, there ARE still good things… Read more »
World Cocktail Day
If there was ever a time we needed World Cocktail Day, it’s 2020! Fun fact- cocktails as we know them were largely the result of the poor quality of spirits available (legally or otherwise) during the 1920’s and 1930’s. Something was needed to mask the taste of bathtub gin and so mixers because hugely popular. By the time the quality… Read more »
What’s Really for Sale?
I have a deep seated hatred for the word “influencer” along with its partner phrase “influencer culture”. It’s all just so fake.

It’s laughable. Even more laughable are… Read more »
Cubicle Day
Today is Cubicle Day. Cubicles have been around a lot longer than you might think- they were first introduced in 1967! The idea was to break up open office spaces and allow for a bit of privacy/ personal space. Clearly that idea really caught on, and the majority of us have worked in a cubicle at some point in our… Read more »
Thank You Thursday
Today is a heartwarming holiday we need more than ever this year- Thank You Thursday. Many of us are fortunate enough to have someone who went the extra mile to make this “new normal” a little more bearable. Maybe they called just to say hi. Maybe it’s the person who you share a home with who did all the dishes… Read more »
Beaver Day
Today is Beaver Day. I’m going to leave the jokes to you guys on this one. Have at it!
Bon Jovi Appreciation Day
Today is Bon Jovi appreciation day! What? You don’t think this is real? Well, you’re right AND wrong, because today is Make Your Own Holiday Day 🙂 And if I’m the one making the holiday, what else could it be?!?!? If you need suggestions for lesser known songs to fall in love with I’m happy to help. If you want… Read more »
