It's National Return Your Shopping Carts to the Supermarket Month

Tomorrow is February 1. In addition to the month set aside to returning those pesky carts you've had parked in the front yard, we also celebrate the following this month:
  • International Expect Success Month - why am I not surprised this comes in the shortest month?
  • Library Lovers Month - why do we have to contain this to one month, and again, the shortest one at that?
  • National Time Management Month - again short month, what are they saying?
  • North Carolina Sweet Potato Month - but not South Carolina Sweet Potatoes, that's October

If you need to plan more finitely, the following weekly observances will occur in February:

  • February 1-7 - Solo Diners Eat Out Weekend - that's just sad
  • February 4-10 - Dump Your Significant Jerk Week - as opposed to Election Day 2008
  • February 5-9 - Just Say No to PowerPoints Week
  • February 6-10 - Funeral Service Education Week - somewhat appropriate this occurs in the "dead" of winter, huh?
  • February 8-14 - Love Makes the World Go Round; But, Laughter Keeps Us From Getting Dizzy Week - presumably celebrated by those who dumped their jerks the week before.

There are many more celebrations you can observe. Click here.
