National Wildlife Day. This is, of course, a very good thing — we must protect our precious animals. But let us not forget that today is also . . .

World Sexual Health Day. Can’t argue with that one either. We must protect our . . . well, anyway . . .

And since they turn up on the same day, I wonder what would happen if we decided to celebrate them together with one big party and . . .

Okay, back to reality now. There’s more going on tomorrow, besides the birthday of someone I must remember to send a greeting. September 5th is . . .

International Day of Charity. We shouldn’t do this on only one day of the year, or just at Christmastime, or before December 31st for the tax deduction. Whenever you can, just choose your favorite(s) and send whatever you can afford; or contribute your time to help someone. It’s a good thing.

National Cheese Pizza Day. I like mine with the standard pizza sauce and cheese, plus bell peppers, onions, and eggplant. Yes, eggplant. I only know of one place that makes those, and it’s about 500 miles away, so I just have to fantasize about them. But you do yours, your own way. And enjoy.

National Be Late For Something Day. Oh, that’s too easy. But if the person you’re supposed to be meeting is also planning to be late, then won’t you both be on time?

World Samosa Day. You don’t have to choose between this and the pizza. It’s just once a year — live it up, and have both. I won’t tell.

*. *. *

That’s it — two days wrapped up into one. Come to think of it, that makes life go twice as quickly, so I’d probably better stop doing that.

Just sayin’ . . .
