Repeat Day – Today is your
opportunity to repeat whatever you want to do over again today. Wear
the same clothes you wore yesterday, repeat a favorite activity as
many times as you want, repeat someone's words back to them.
Whatever you desire to do again, do it today.
Chimborazo Day – This is a day
to focus on the shape of the earth. It turns out that, surprisingly,
the world is not completely round. There are mountains and valleys
and such that make it more of a lumpy ball than a round one. One
lump in particular is bigger than the others. That would be Mount
Chimborazo in Ecuador which has the distinction of poking out into
space farther than any other mountain on Earth, including Mount
Everest. The reason for this is that the distance from sea level to
the center of Earth is 13 miles greater at the Equator than it is at
the North Pole which means that Mount Chimborazo has an advantage
over Mount Everest which may be a bigger mountain, but is still
closer to the center of the Earth.
National Leave the Office Early Day
– This is a day to combat workaholism. Today you are going to
leave work early and actually enjoy the rest of your day. Do not
spend all of your time and energies at work. There is life outside
the office and you need to explore it today.
To celebrate today, pick your favorite
spot on the Earth and research where it falls in terms of the shape
of the earth. Is it below sea level or above it? On a mountain or
in a valley, closer to the center of the Earth than other places or
farther away? Then you need to leave work early and repeat something
that you did over the weekend that you enjoyed. Eat some chocolate
macaroons while you do it.
