Nothing To See Here

January 16th is Nothing Day. A day that I would fail at celebrating if I said much more than that, as the point is to do nothing. It may also be Hot and Spicy International Food Day, but Nothing Day would trump that, I believe. Just so I don't seem lazy, I'll put various spices on various things. Other than that, tune in tomorrow.

Hats off! Er... On.

January 15th is a holiday so simple and easy to celebrate that I almost forgot to even mention it. Hat Day is exactly what you think it would be. Put on your favourite hat and bask in it's head-warming glory while others swoon and faint in the sheer presence of you and your cool hat. Baseball caps, ski caps, maybe a tarboosh? (For my one view that came from Turkey) No hat is the wrong hat for Hat Day. Visors if you feel like running the risk of being called out by all true hat wearers. Otherwise, the world is your hat oyster.

Never Again

January 14th... is a day that I at first did not like the idea of, but it won me over. National Dress Up Your Pet Day at first would seem like a day that furthers the idea that it is okay to put your pet in a sweater during the winter, or that they need a sun hat in the summer. They don't. However, I thought about it and came to the conclusion that this holiday is okay in my book, as long as it is the ONLY day when this is allowed. Now, I know... I know... they look cute all dress up like us peoples do. Admittedly, yeah it can be pretty cool to see a well-thought out costume for a person an their dog on halloween. The best costumes however, do nothing to the dog! Got a little black yorkie and a brunette girl? One basket later, it's Dorothy and Toto from Wizard of Oz. Got an elderly man and a Jack Russell Terrier? Grab a cane and it's Eddie and Martin from Frasier. Got a yellow lab and a small child? Give the kid a gun and it's Old Yeller.

... That last one was a little dark, but my point stands. They don't need a costume or clothes to be cute or cool. That said, I'm not going to yell at people that I see who DO dress up their pets, I just don't see me ever doing it myself. However, it is the holiday of the day, so to make good on my promise, I have to. I only have an extra shirt from Build-a-Bear to use, though, as the pants do not fit. So here ya go. Business Casual Milo.
