Have you ever checked out the National Holidays calendar? No, I don't mean to see what day Christmas is. I mean the calendar that shows all the national holidays we don't talk about. The fun ones-- like National Pancake Day (a personal favorite) or National Squirrel Appreciation!! It doesn't stop there; there are so many National Holidays about the craziest things, and I thoroughly enjoy looking through the calendar. It gives each and every day another layer of interesting! Many dates have multiple observances. I read that my birthday (May 21) has several-- National Talk Like Yoda Day, International Tea Day, World Meditation Day, and Cool Sword Day, to name a few.
Needless to say, if you thought the only fun thing July had in store was the 4th (Happy Birthday USA!), you were sorely mistaken. Don't miss these fun holidays this month:
July the 6th is World Kissing Day! Don't worry, single pringles, you don't have to make it romantic. I plan to kiss on my baby cousin! I hope you have lots of Xs and Os on the 6th! If any of you have told any lies lately, or plan to, you better brace yourself for June 7th-- Tell the Truth Day! Been feeling a little huffy lately? Just hold out 'til the 19th, because it's Stick Out Your Tongue Day! I plan to take full advantage of that one. Here's one for my fitness fam: Junk Food Day on Jul 21st! That is your ultimate splurge day!! To end the month off strong, the 31st is Uncommon Musical Instrument Day!
There are lots more in-between those, so if none of those fit your mold, look up a calendar and check the rest out! Make your July the most interesting yet!!
