Hey, who called for this ladder?

In 2008, this day was Cabin Fever Day!

And for those are you who have bravely gone into tomorrow (which would be most everyone Central US time and east of that), itʻs Alexander Graham Bell Day! Go ahead, make that call!

think of the chaos !! there would be no stopping them. lack of opposable thumbs may actually be the only thing standing between them and total world domination.

on the other hand, they'd be able to open the cat food themselves, so maybe i could take a break.

Yes, in observance of National Procrastination Week (last week), and in keeping with the lack of flow, I totally neglected yesterday's observances, of which I will only mention the most important . . .

March 9th:

Barbie Day (hey, DixieGal)

Organize Your Home Office Day (opps, missed that one . . . DARN!)

Panic Day (I don't need a special day for that)

and pshrynk's own...

Get Over It Day



Moving right along...

March 10th:

Learn What Your Name Means Day

and

International Day of Awesomeness


among many, many, many others (but who cares?)

Let me see....according to my calender there's:
In Seattle, Washington:
Gary 'Green River' Ridgway Appreciation Week (For his efforts in ending prostitution)

For everyone else, you've got:
Interspecies Marriage Now month,
Real Names for Newborns week,
Bring Your Mistress Home Day, and
Gglurkh Thnaad (a minor holy day for Cthulhu cultists.)

Before we wander any farther off topic (and into another time zone), I'ed like to announce that it's officially:

Vlad the Impaler Appreciation Day!
In honor of a man who dedicated his life to bringing people to the point and the point to the people.

Get the point?

I just went to the Google.fr web site, and they have a nice logo that says today is Pi day. Pi day? Oh well, why not.

Yes, things get really interesting a round (ahem!) 1:59 pm and 26 seconds today. Perhaps I should bake a pi to celebrate - apple?
