1511: Have a whatever the f*ck you need day
Today, inspired by many fabulous international days, we’re leaning into creating our own rituals, embracing the silliness as well as making it up as we go along.
Episode transcript:
Good morning, Daily peppers, and a very happy Wednesday to you. So sometimes, as I'm sure you can imagine, I draw a bit of a blank on what to share for our daily pepper of the day. And I head on over and see what international days it is on the days that I'm recording. Now, I don't find that particularly helpful and I'm going to tell you why, but I think we can turn this around and create it into a rebellious thing that we can do for ourselves. So I did a quick Google and I found a website that tells you what national days it is.
So today, 21st January, are you ready for is National Cheesy Socks Day? Is National Hugging Day. Museum Selfie Day. International Play Date Day. National Squirrel Appreciation Day. International Sweatpants Day. National Granola Bar Day. National Bakers Crafters Makers Day. It is also one liners Day. And thank your mentor Day. And yes, just to confirm, that is all for today, January 21st. Now what I'm taking from this is that it is a have whatever the fuck it is you need day.
We get to create our own rituals, we get to have our own days for things and we can essentially make shit up as we go. Now, I have no idea how many of those national days are actual things. I'm not trying to shit on them, but instead I'm trying to use it as some inspiration for us to add some silliness to our lives and also to give ourselves what we need. So Happy Wednesday. Happy Hump Day. We are over halfway through the week and whatever day you choose to celebrate today, I hope you find some joy. I'll see you tomorrow.
