Nametag Day, Be Nasty Day, Girls Write Now Day, more

March 8th, 2012, is Nametag Day, Be Nasty Day, Girls Write Now Day, World Kidney Day, International Women's Day, Peanut Cluster Day, and Popcorn Lovers Day.

Make life easier for the unfortunate people (myself included) who have trouble remembering names. Wear one of those stick-on labels with your name in bold black marker in honor of Nametag Day. This day is always observed on Thursday of Celebrate Your Name Week.

Can't you read any faster? Who invited you here, anyway? The 80s want their shirt back. Sorry, but today is Be Nasty Day.

Girls Write Now Day is, according to the official website, "a day to encourage girls of all ages everywhere n the world to put pen to paper and explore the beauty and power of their unique, creative voices."

International Women's Day celebrates all things female, including empowerment. According to UN Women, IWD is "a global day celebrating the economic, political and social achievements of women in the past, present and future. It is a day when women are recognised for their achievements, regardless of divisions, whether national, ethnic, linguistic, cultural, economic or political."

The theme for World Kidney Day 2012 is "Donate - Kidneys for Life - Receive."

Enjoy a sweet and salty treat featuring chocolate and peanuts on National Peanut Cluster Day.

If you're in the mood for something lighter, you're in luck. The second Thursday in March is Popcorn Lovers Day.
