October
October calendar “celebrations”
The start of October is fast approaching so it’s time to see what is in store for us. I have many October occasions to tell you about in this posting, starting with those somewhat unknown ones associated in general with the month of October:
- Adopt a shelter dog month
- Clergy appreciation month
- Eat country ham month
- Cookie Month
- National popcorn popping month
- National vegetarian month
- National pizza month and, appropriately
- Sarcastic Month
Now a few day-specific “celebrations:”
- October 2: National custodial worker day
- October 2: Name your car/automobile day
- October 3: Virus appreciation day (Sickness virus or computer virus????)
- October 5: Do something nice day
- October 7: Bald and free day
- October 7: World smile day
- October 9: Moldy cheese day (I guess this could also be a co-celebration of Clean out the fridge day?)
- October 12: Moment of frustration day
- October 13: International skeptics day (I don’t believe it)
- October 17: Wear something gaudy day
- October 19: Evaluate your life day
- October 22: National nut day (the edible or the friend-type?)
- October 27: Make a difference day
- October 30: National candy corn day
- October 31: Increase your psychic powers day (I bet you already knew that)
There were so many I could have posted but I just put a few out there, hoping that you have more to add.
