Ugh. And i had all those memories from working at godiva chocolate suppressed

I am now picturing Ken at Godiva Chocolate, dressed as Francois recommending various bonbons... and it is glorious.

On to today...

Brandied Fruit Day (also a thing I would watch Ken sell)

And...

Nope, just brandied fruit.

Pumpkin Cheesecake Day (because, of course it is)

Clean Your Virtual Desktop Day (easily achieved by buying a new one and spending the next month removing prompts for stuff you don't want)

And...

Reptile Awareness Day (snakes, crocs, and gators...they are all out to get you)

Color Day (Give some love to periwinkle, puce, mauve, chartreuse, indigo and other lesser known spots on the spectrum)

And...

Nut Day (we all know a nut)

Mole Day (so this is either about skin growths, burrowing rodents or spicy chocolate sauce)

iPod Day (are these still a thing?)

Medical Assistants Recognition Day (thank you lackeys)

Boston Cream Pie Day (Mark. Do you just call it a Cream Pie there?)

TV Talk Show Host Day (not nearly as important as moles or medical assistants)

And...

Swallows Depart from San Juan Capistrano Day (and you thought you had a strict schedule)

United Nations Day (except the bad ones)

Food Day (just food in general)

And...

Bologna Day (which obviously is not food, hence the separate listing)

Sourest Day (last week was sweet, now after a week of reality...)

Chucky the Killer Doll Day (friends to the end)

Frankenstein Friday (now we are talking! Igor, fire up the lab)

Greasy Food Day (anybody want odds on tomorrow being antacid day?)

Breadstick Day (no swordfighting, kids)

And...

Pharmacy Buyer Day (if you buy the whole pharmacy, you ARE the Opiod problem)

Tennessee Day (is it stretched out because it was an expansion state?)

Mule Day (for your 30 acres)

Day of the Deployed (have a thought for those who are stuck in some lousy warzone because of some guys in suits)

Make a Difference Day (change the world even if it is in a small way)

Mincemeat Day (no actual meat was harmed...like an impossible whopper)

And...

Pumpkin Day (maybe it is a little bit too early for pumpkins)

Black Cat Day (we all know what bad luck comes with crossing paths with a black cat)

Mother in Law Day (see, it is already starting)

American Beer Day (and weak beer)

And...

Navy Day (which probably has to do with boats and not a shade of blue...and, yes, I realize what calling them boats implies to a navy vet)

Chocolate Day (which I am sure we have done at least once)

Cat Day (singular...as in just one in the house. No need for 20, one will do)

Hermit Day (do not gather friends to celebrate)

Oatmeal Day (some like theirs mixed with brown sugar or fruit. I like adding hot water)

And...

World Stroke Day (trust me on this, avoid having one today)

Candy Corn Day (somebody eats this stuff, no idea who or why. )

Publicist Day (you would think that if they were any good, this would have more promotion)

And...

Speak Up For Service Day (maybe hire a publicist)

Halloween (so drive home carefully. Kids will be amok)

Magic Day (candy, ta-daa)

Caramel Apple Day (razor blade not included)

Girl Scout Founders Day (a brilliant long term plan to ensnare young girls into green sales labor of cookies)

Knock Knock Joke Day (who'd there? Broken pencil. Broken pencil who? Nevermiind, there's no point.)

And...

Doorbell Day (because knock knock is old fashioned)

New monthly observations! Plan some time for some of these.

Military Family Appreciation Month

Aviation History Month (there is only about a hundred years for you to catch up on)

Diabetes Month (check your blood sugar)

Family Stories Month (ours frequently involve diabetes and aviation)

Gratitude Month (be glad your family stories don't)

Movember (no idea, possibly involves moving)

Adoption Month (someone new to tell family stories)

Native American Heritage Month (in Ohio, even the tribal Indians were immigrants)

Peanut Butter Lovers Month (I wouldn't say love so much as "obsessive toxic on again/off again relationship)

And...

Novel Writing Month (every day you don't finish your novel, Stephanie Meyer is better than you)

On to today:

Author's Day (yes Mark, today is ALL ABOUT YOU)

Brush Day (I prefer a paint brush but those around me encourage I use a hair brush)

Calzone Day (it is a folded up pizza)

Cook for Your Pets Day (hint, they, like your kids, do not want brocolli)

Deep Fried Clams Day (also not good for the dog)

Family Literacy Day (Mark, now you have two excuses to make the kids read your book)

Jersey Friday (ok, this either requires a fake tan and irresponsible drinking OR wearing your team's shirt. Play it safe and do both. warning, that team shirt will cost you at least 80 bucks)

And...

Vinegar Day (also not a favorite of your pets)

Deviled Egg Day (if you order breakfast today, tell them you want your eggs deviled...they never have that option)

Bison Day (totally different from a buffalo...or so I was told)

And...

Ohio Day (birthplace of more Astronauys and Presidents than any other state...because nobody wants to stay here)

Daylight Savings Time Ends (you are late)

Housewife's Day (praise for June Cleaver, patron saint of doing housework while wearing her best jewelry)

And...

Sandwich Day (free sandwiches at Chik-fil-a all day... oh, wait, they are closed sundays)

Candy Day (like you needed more after last Thursday's binge)

Traffic Directors Day (Go, wait Stop, ok now Go and wish them a good day)

Chicken Lady Day (is she Mrs. Sanders?)

And...

Color the World Orange Day (if this relates to leaves...too late, thise fell down)

Doughnut Day (proper spelling. Go find a specialist shop and skip the chain "donut")

And...

Love Your Red Hair Day (even if it is bottle enhanced, I am ok with this plan)

Job Action Day (go to your job and do...something)

Saxophone Day (possibly not while at your job, but maybe it will get you noticed. When in doubt, go with Clarence Clemmons instead of Kenny G)

Stress Awareness Day (you have stress, I have stress, we all have stress. Apathy is the soulution)


And...

Nachos Day (another solution for stress but they will clog your sax)

* "soulution" was an auto correct that I opted to leave in...it isn't even a word, why is it an autocorrect?

Because saxaphone day is the soul-ution

Canine Lymphoma Day (different from lycanthropy day)

And...

Men Make Dinner Day (so what else is new?)

STEM/STEAM Day (lurn mor gud stuff at skool Cruz werds ain't portant)

Parents as Teachers Day (or maybe we leave things to the professionals)

Harvey Wallbanger Day (what most parents would want after trying to teach)

And...

Cappuccino Day (needs more coffee and less foam)

Louisiana Day (gators, tigers, shrimp and cajuns...what's not to love)

Microtia Awareness Day (I am completely unaware of what that may be)

And...

Scrapple Day (uh...have at it)

Forget-Me-Not Day (again, not in season)

Marine Corps Birthday (you need a young priest and an old priest...wait, that is for exorcisms)

And...

Vanilla Cupcake Day (is that not the default, "plain", flavor?)
