Humorous Day - Today we are to find our humorous side. If you try, you can find humor in nearly anything that happens to you. This is what comedians are really good at but we can train ourselves to do it too in order to take our own lives less seriously and find a way to brighten our day.
National Garlic Day – These seasoning powerhouses do more than keep away vampires. They have been used to season food for over 6,000 years according to this website. It has well known and proven health benefits as well as being rich in vitamins and minerals. It also has a great side benefit of helping to get rid of unwanted boyfriends/girlfriends. All you have to do is eat enough of it.
John Parker Day – On this day in 1775, John Parker, a farmer and Captain of the Lexington Militia, commanded his men at the famous Battle of Lexington. He is credited with saying to his men, “Stand your ground. Don't fire unless fired upon, but if they mean to have a war, let it begin here.” Of course, his men either ignored his order or didn’t hear it because by some accounts one of them fired the shot that began the war. It is sad to note that John Parker was sick with Consumption at that time and died a few months later so he didn’t see their victory in the war that began with his men.
National Hanging Out Day – Do you have a clothesline? Well, if not, you might want to hang one up today because this day was created by Project Laundry List and is a day to focus on conserving energy and saving money by hanging out your clothes to dry instead of using a dryer. Did you know that clothes dryers emit nearly 20 percent as much carbon dioxide as an average car?
Oklahoma City Bombing Commemoration Day – On this day in 1995, a truck bomb exploded next to the Alfred P. Murrah federal building killing 168 people, including 19 children, and injuring hundreds more. Two people were responsible, ( I will not name them because I don't want their names to be remembered, it would be far better to remember the names of the victims.) one of the perpetrators was executed, and the other one is serving life in prison.
National Wear Your Pajamas To Work Day – Celebrated on the day after taxes are due so you can have a day to decompress after all the stress of doing your taxes. So don't worry about picking out just the right outfit today and just stay in your pajamas. As long as you are decently covered. Just saying, I know how some of you dress to go to bed.
