May All Your Days Be This Bold: It’s Friday, Sun’s out…I’m grateful for both those facts. But these early May Days are special days.
Tomorrow is Free Comic Book Day and you’ll wanna create a game plan since many comic book shops have creator signings, characters and events. (I’ll be heading to Heroes World in Richmond Hill.)
Unless your jam is Star Wars in that case it’s time to spring clean the Death Star since company is coming over tomorrow…bust out that Mr. Clean, yo!
Solid nerd two-fer.
And to be present in the present today is National Paranormal Day: people who believe in paranormal activities are encouraged to get together and share their experiences with each other. Gather around the campfire children.
That’s fun, though not as much fun as celebrating National No Pants Day! Which is also today…though truly it’s everyday.
Do both! Talk about ghosts without wearing pants. Casper doesn’t wear pants and he’s branded as “The Friendly Ghost.”
Hopefully you can keep all that straight; it’s a lot.
Don’t mix up the dates and show up to Free Comic Book Day without pants.
One day…soon…we’ll get there. But not today or even tomorrow.
Today is a day for dreams and delights. An inspiring vision is one whose time has come. Where the elegant logic is so clear it cannot be denied.
Starting today we can make pants past tense because all they ever did was make people tense. Freedom is way more fun.
