Es-kah-pey

Today is Escape Day. There isn't much about this holiday online, but I did manage to find one source that said it was a day to escape from anything and everything that causes you stress. I have recently come down with a mild yet very annoying sickness that I would absolutely love to escape, so I will be taking a lot of vitamin C and drinking water. But as I'm sure you think, that is a lame way to celebrate. Well, I'm sick and I can't go anywhere, so I'll have to find a new way to escape. Books are sometimes called an escape into another world, so I'll read a book or possibly write my own story. In fact, I'll write my own story and escape to an entirely new world altogether that no one else has been to. Now that's an escape.

No place for a mighty warrior.

Today is National Corn Chip Day: a day to celebrate one of the most addicting snacks in the world! Just so the less food-educated are aware, corn chips and potato chips are NOT the same thing. Corn chips are usually dipped in salsa, cheese, chili, or crushed up and baked into some delicious crunchy mexican recipes. In my opinion, corn chips will reign supreme over potato chips for all time, as they are delicious to eat even alone and without any seasoning because they always taste great. So take some time today to stuff your face with corn chips in celebration of this day dedicated to them.

Clashing Rattlesnake Kazoos

Today is first and foremost, National Kazoo Day. A day to play the kazoo either in a group, or go for that wicked kazoo solo you've been practicing for all those years. Anyone who can hum has already mastered the kazoo as long as they can also carry a tune.

There are two more days that I couldn't find any solid info on, though. The first being Clash Day. I couldn't find out if it had to do with simply wearing clothes that clashed or whether it had to do with some sort of astrological animal sign clash that I can't even understand. So I'll do my best to just go with the clothing one, seeing as that got more google results.

The second day I can't wrap my head around is Rattlesnake Roundup Day. Am I supposed to go out and literally roundup some rattlesnakes? No, the internet was fairly clear on saying that I wasn't supposed to do that. I did get some results that entailed looking at snakes, playing snake games (whatever that means), reading articles about snakes, and just snake-related activities in general. I suppose I could watch a few snake movies, as there are quite a few of those now. I could also go for an hour or two of playing the classic video game: Snake. They even have a playable version of that on Youtube now, I hear.
