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 »
I have a deep seated hatred for the word “influencer” along with its partner phrase “influencer culture”. It’s all just so fake. How many times have celebrities and pseudocelebrities gotten busted for including the directions from the company they are supposedly promoting out of the kindness of their hearts in their social media posts? It’s laughable. Even more laughable are… Read more »
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 »
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 »
Today is Beaver Day. I’m going to leave the jokes to you guys on this one. Have at it!
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 »
Today is skirt day! Skirts (or skirt- like garments) have been worn by women AND men since the dawn of recorded time. Now that’s a long lasting fashion trend 🙂 It seems like spring is on its way, so what better way to celebrate than to bust out a skirt that’s been hiding in the back of your closet since… Read more »
There are two kinds of people in this world, and they can be sorted easily by this simple phrase. Don’t Panic. If you immediately think of anything other than a towel you are to be pitied, as you have clearly never read or listened to Douglas Adam’s classic “The Hitchkhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy”. It was a radio show, a… Read more »
Well? What if they did? Pretty much everyone loves cats or dogs- some love both. Regardless of which one you prefer, think imagine if they had thumbs. Real, working, opposable thumbs. They could open their own food. They could open doors and drawers and cabinets (depending on their size and level of agility). Those were the first ones I though… Read more »
Today is Pluto Day! Today we celebrate the official discovery of the planet Pluto on this date in 1930 by Clyde Tombaugh. Fun fact- Pluto is NOT named after the Disney character, as has been widely suggested. Instead, it is named after the Roman god of the underworld at the suggestion of Clyde’s 11 year old granddaughter, who was very… Read more »
