in the coming week i will be celebrating:

• tuesday 18th march: forgive mom and dad day (not sure what for but i’m sure i can think of some injustice that i don’t mind any more. probably something to do with bedtimes or clothkits pinafore dresses.)
• wednesday 19th march: chocolate caramel day. (sounds like my kind of holiday.)
• thursday 20th march: vernal equinox (because i’m passing on the great american meat-out.)
• friday 21st march: memory day (do try to remember that one…)
• saturday 22nd march: cherry blossom day (because why have goof off day on a saturday?? also my grandad’s 86th birthday.)
• sunday 23rd march: it has to be chip and dip day. (i think elevator day might get tedious after not very long. and i can’t wrap my imagination around near miss day.)

if they gave you some idea of the provenance of these holidays on the website it’d be a much better, more interesting and less head scratchy kind of a place.
