Graves' Disease Week-Frequently Asked Questions

International Thank You Days/National Thank Your Customers Week- A link to "Thank you" in over 465 languages just in case you need to say "Ngiyabonga ka khulu" to your Zulu customers as well as to your other international friends. Although your Estonian friends might wonder why you are saying "ngiyabonga ka khulu" when a simple "tänan" will do.

Cuckoo Dancing Week- Jan.12-18 is Cuckoo Dancing Week,
honoring the memory of Laurel and Hardy,
whose theme song was "The Dancing Cuckoos."”


National Skating Week- Try out The Strong and the Sequined: A Figure Skating Soap Opera if you want to dedicate time to Parts 1-239, spanning 1997-2003. I tried Part 32..And I didn't make it through two paragraphs. The characters didn't captivate me. Which was disappointing. Usually, I am easily captivated by both soap operas and figure skating. One tear.

National Fresh Squeezed Juice Week- To read scary warnings about fresh squeezed juice, check out Fresh Squeezed Facts: A Parent's Guide to Juice (Apparently, you can die from drinking apple juice.)

Usually, I don't speak to people who speak to me in internet language. But, since it's you... I have to ask: is it really easier to type R and U?

Feisty today aren't we. Are we channeling Nalani today, or did we just dye our hair red.

Now, I really am not speaking to you.

Even I know never to accuse you of channeling Nalani.

Edgy, dear, you are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy... and the skys are definitely gray if I am behaving like a certain someone.

I apologize to everyone. I am grounding myself from blogging for a week.
