more fun holidays ...

Now that one of our greatly celebrated holidays has passed, let's consider some less well known holidays coming up this weekend ...

This Saturday, July 7 is Chocolate Day, Father-Daughter Take a Walk Day (presumably to expend some calories from all of the celebratory chocolate) and the running of the bulls starts in Spain (so ... while fathers and daughters go for a walk, mothers and sons go for a run?)

Sunday, July 8 is Video Games Day, Be a Kid Again Day (which kind of goes along with Video Games Day) and Don't Put All Your Eggs in One Omelet Day ... I have to say, I'm glad it's not Put All Your Eggs in One Omelet Day, 'cause I have a full carton of 18 in the fridge and I really don't know what I would do with an 18 egg omelet! But for those of you who only have two or three eggs on hand, I suppose you'll have to cut back or come borrow some eggs from me ...


On an entirely different subject, I read an interesting article today that supports a long held theory of mine. The title of the article is Gals don’t gab that much more than guys ... which isn't my theory exactly ... in fact, I guess I have more of an anti-theory, namely the theory that all girls talk more than all guys. Obviously, I am that proof to disprove the theory. I would say that on a day to day basis I talk half as much as either of my sisters, I even know a few guys that talk more than me! ... which really is no news to any of you reading this ... but anyway, it was nice to see a different perspective in this study and know that I am normal, just slightly less wordy.

Well, sorry for rambling a bit there, didn't mean to get all introspective on you .... thanks for reading and don't forget to celebrate the upcoming holidays this weekend!
