July will be the month I list the entire family except me

Toad Hollow Day of Thank You?????
I like 6/2. Think my boss will buy it?

Sure your boss will buy it. Just tell him it is imperative you leave the office early to have Rocky Road ice cream with Bubba. National security depends on it.

How could he take the chance that you might be wrong?

Oh great, now I'll be spouting a long list of my favourite TV characters...

"I do take thee Aerin. I mean Marge! I mean Chiana! I mean Kirk! Damnit..."

Yesterday (the 30th) was the June Bank Holiday. It doesn't sound bizzarre until you realise that it largely consists of fat people wandering the streets with no shirt until they turn a nice shade of pink. And caravans. Lots and lots of caravans...

I can't think of any bizarre june days. Except maybe that one with the alcohol. Oh wait, that's every weekend...

June 1

Well, what do you know. I found a filthy fly bussing around in my kitchen this morning. I dared him to land within striking distance. He was not very cooperative, and I had to chase him around the house with a fly swatter in my hand for almost 2 hours. But finally, he did land and the Great White Hunter triumphed again. One dead filthy fly. What an exciting day this was. And how was yours?

[General Phoenix]

Well, I dared myself to join up at a tanning salon near my house, in honor of Dare Day.

Worked out pretty well, too. I spend about 10 minutes every few days lying nearly-naked in a tanning bed, and I actually feel refreshed afterward. Not to mention the lovely young woman who works the front desk seemed to enjoy talking to me before I left.

All for just $35 a month...

[Darrell Lawrence]

Today, June First, I told a Mexican visiting my neighbor to go join the Navy

[General Phoenix]

Not sure if that's quite what the lady had in mind, but I guess it's the thought that counts.

Just realized I can't celebrate "Leave the Office Early Day" - I close my store tomorrow, and I can't leave until everyone else does.

Maybe I'll just close the whole place at 7 pm instead of 10. I doubt anyone will notice...

Today (June 2nd) I am doing a Bubba moment by using this handle to test some stuff.

"Heyyyy Bubbaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!"

I wondered why you were doing it.

[skyhawk223]

Hug your cat day...I can do that with a fine selection of three to choose from.

Wow! I got out of bed this morning all prepared to celebrate Chimborazo Day. What the heck is Chimborazo Day? Does anyone out there know what it is?

I REPEAT: Does anyone out there know what it is?

I REPEAT: Does anyone out there know what it is?

[Darrell Lawrence]

I'm gonna have to go with Repeat Day... The cats won't let me hug them.

So what's repeating? I got a child graduating High School again (Daughter 4 yrs ago, son today)

[General Phoenix]

From my research (read "Google") it seems that Chimborazo is a city/province/mountain/forest preserve in Equador.

Cool, huh?



Yeah, I didn't think so either...

I spent the whole day under the popular delusion that Sunday is a day of rest. Guess what.....
It isn't.

[General Phoenix]

Wasn't for me - I had to work a normal shift at my store, then go to a woman's house and clean viruses off her computer for about 4 hours...

[Darrell Lawrence]

Today being teh 6th, I gues I get to be a yo-yo.

Yo! Yo!

[skyhawk223]

I might be doing some garden exercising thisd evening.

[nezhdan]

* Potty Training Awareness Month --- That's just wrong, on a bunch of levels, especially when you consider I was thinking "Ooh, Turkey Appreciate Month! I like turkey!" :x
