Hallmark Holiday:
National Cheese Sacrifice Purchase Day
If you've got a house full of mice and you've been meaning to get around to trapping them, you can start the process today by purchasing some cheese to sacrifice on the trap. If you don't have a house full of mice, or if you can't bear the thought of mousetraps, then spare the sacrifice and make yourself a grilled cheese sandwich.

National Lasagna Day
There's a good deal of promise in layers of pasta and cheese, and that's why lasagna never disappoints. While it's a clearly Italian dish, the name lasagna is believed to be from the Greek lasanon, which means pot. Tonight cook up some lasagna and eat the whole lasanon-full yourself!

Rain Day
Here's a weird little holiday, courtesy of Waynesburg, Pennsylvania. It all started back on July 28th, 1874, when a farmer told Byron Daly, the owner of a drug store, that tomorrow he should expect rain. The farmer made this guess because it always rained on his birthday, July 29th. When the farmer's prediction proved true, Mr. Daly made an annual game of it, betting store patrons and townspeople that they could expect rain on July 29th. The typical wager for this bet: a hat. Every year it rained, and every year Mr. Daly won himself a new hat. Over the years Daly and his son amassed a huge collection of hats, which were donated to raise money for charity. So next time it rains on Rain Day, just think, somebody out there is winning a hat. And somebody's bare head is getting soaking wet.

I think the garbage pick-up truck is running a little late today.
I still hate ants today.
