July 21st, 2012, is Invite an Alien to Live with You Day, Toss Away the "Could Haves" and "Should Haves" Day, Legal Drinking Age Day, Monkey Day, Woodie Wagon Day, Canada's Parks Day, Independence Day (Belgium), National Junk Food Day, and National Lamington Cake Day.
Today is Invite an Alien to Live with You Day. When I told my husband, he replied, "I thought you already did." Very cute. He's an alien from Oklahoma, you see, and he charmed me into inviting him to Missouri.... But I digress. Invite an Alien to Live with You Day falls on the birth date of Robin Williams, also known as "Mork from Ork."
We could all use a bit of the advice this holiday offers - Toss Away the "Could Haves" and "Should Haves" Day. Give yourself a break, move on from past mistakes, and aim higher in the future.
The legal drinking age varies from country to country, and birthdays occur on every day of the year. Maybe somebody was drinking when they decided that July 21st, more than any other day of the year, should be celebrated as Legal Drinking Age Day. Cheers, if you're legal.
July 21st is Monkey Day, commemorating the date when Scopes was found guilty during the Scopes Monkey Trial against teaching evolution in schools. Celebrate however you see fit - visit the monkeys at your local zoo, reminisce about David Letterman's Monkey Cam, or send a Monkey Day e-card. Enjoy!
The third Saturday in July is Woodie Wagon Day. Should make you smile, if you're old enough to remember when they were common. Get your photo fix at WoodyWagon.com.
If you're in Canada, pack a picnic basket, grab your sports equipment, and head out to a local park. Today is Canada's Parks Day.
Belgium observes Independence Day on July 21st, celebrating independence from the Netherlands.
Today is National Junk Food Day. If you normally abstain or enjoy junk food in moderation, feel free to go crazy just this once. On the other hand, if you eat junk food all the time, take this day as an opportunity to avoid junk food and explore some healthy alternatives.
National Lamington Cake Day is celebrated in Australia, paying homage to a sponge cake dipped in chocolate and topped with shredded coconut. Nice to learn about an Australian foodie tradition other than throwing shrimp on the barbie.
