October Fore!...th

Today is National Golf Day! This is actually a very well-timed holiday in my opinion. Fall is on it's way and it isn't melt-your-face-off hot outside anymore. It's the perfect time to be on the green. Or the beach, depending on how well you play the game. I remember taking golf lessons as a young child with my older brother. One of my favorite parts about golfing is the golf cart. That should tell you a little bit about how good of a golfer I was. Although I DO have a trophy that I won with my grandpa in a tournament. Looking back on how I scored, I think he fudged the numbers a little bit. Still, this gold-painted plastic man swinging at nothing with nothing (his golf club broke off within the week) will always remind me of the time I played golf with an honest-to-goodness golfer's glove on my hand. ... That... that was a big deal to me for some reason.

Today is Virus Appreciation Day! Whether we are talking about human or computer sickness is a little bit sketchy, but either way it's the perfect day to celebrate them. Well... maybe not celebrate... but "appreciate". Viruses are a very bad thing to have as a person, as it could shorten or even end your life. Computer viruses are less of a threat, since at best, they'll just make your social life slightly more difficult. Very, very slightly. Be especially aware of viruses like the flu, since it's in season now and it's starting to catch on. As for the computers... just get some virus protection... or just don't go to sketchy websites. Actually, don't go on the internet at all. Problem solved. Unless you have a hacker friend who likes pranking you. Then the only course of action is to learn some coding skills and retaliate.

Today is Name Your Car Day! If your car doesn't have a name, today is the day to give it one. I'm frankly surprised that you've gone this long without doing so! I named my car within a week of obtaining it. My car's name is Ella. I knew that once I got the car, that it had a love for speed and sharp turns, but it also hated getting too dirty or being in the rain. So, I had my friends try to help me find a good name for her. (I found out it was a 'her' by the songs it played from the selection that I gave it). One of my friends said that, since it was a yellow car, I should name it "Cinderella" because "Cinderella dressed in yella". I had two things to say about that: First of all, Belle wore a yellow dress and Cinderella wore blue. Secondly, that name is too princess-ish for how tomboyish my car was. So we settled on halving the name to just "Ella", which sounds more rough and tumble. Also, calling it "Cinder" would have just been weird.

So name your car today if you haven't! Make sure it fits it's personality, too. Otherwise, it may dislike you. You'll know if your car dislikes you or not.
