January Monthly Observances, 2012

It’s a new year, which means a whole new set of unique-and-different observance choices. For those of us in the U.S.A., January is official:

“Child-Centered Divorce Awareness Month” (This month only, it’s o.k. to blame it on the children.)

Clean Up Your Computer Month (A warning to the wise…they don’t like baths.)

California Dried Plum Digestive Month (I’m not sure I want to know what dried plums use as a digestive.)

Polka Music Month (I wondered where all the bubbles were coming from.*)

(*Extra points to the first person to explain that joke in the comments for the benefit of the 98% that won’t get it.)

Tubers and Dried Fruit Month (Tonight’s special is potatoes stuffed with dessicated apricots and reconstituted prunes! Wait … where are you going?)

And…

Bath Safety Month (because it’s only funny ’til someone loses a tub.)

Now, get out there and find something to celebrate.
