I'll Gladly Pay You Tuesday

Today is National Hamburger Day! What makes today so great, in my opinion, is how simple it is. It's not 1/2 pound angus burger with no onions on a wheat bun day. No, it's hamburger day. It's have it like you want it day. There are plenty of burger places that cater to that exact mentality, too. In-N-Out, Sonic, Whataburger, Five Guys, Mooyah... the list goes one. You could even grill some up at home. That's what's so great about today. So spend today with some family or friends and pick a meal to celebrate one of the greatest and most customizable main dishes on this side of the universe.

Body of Work.

Today is the Body Painting Arts Festival! While I did find a lot of information on body painting festivals, I didn't find anything telling me why today is a day dedicated to it. But I can still explain what it is! Body painting is usually when some removes most (if not all) of their clothes, and then paints their body. It can be anything from just one solid colour to something more elaborate like animal patterns or replicas of famous works of art. People usually do it for a reason or cause, but it can also be seen at very fancy (I use that word loosely), expensive, V.I.P., on-the-list-only type of parties. You usually use a specific kind of body paint, but I do not have that available to me. What I DO have available to me is paint that I'm going to paint my room with. Usually I avoid having paint fall on even so much as my fingers when I paint, but seeing as I'm so full of the holiday spirit, I suppose I won't avoid it as much today.

See Sally Fly

Today is Sally Ride Day! Today celebrates the birthday of the first woman to go into space, Sally Ride. She was on board the second flight of the shuttle "Challenger" as a mission specialist on June 18th, 1983. There was a fairly massive media frenzy due to her being the first to break into that territory. I have to think that the greatness of her doings were undermined by some, though. There was one reporter who, before the launch, asked her "Do you weep when things go wrong on the job?" But aside from some reporters inability to see the more important aspects of the situation, I'm sure the day will live on along with the legacy she left. Celebrate today by learning a little bit more about space or the space program!
