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.
