And did I also mention that today was Veteran's Day? A commemoration to those who fought and the armistice that ended World War I. In Canada it's called Remembrance Day and you get to wear little red velvet poppies that you could pin on your shirt. *sigh* I miss those. The big 11/11 is also Annual World Run Day--but I'm a lazy bastard to do anything of the sort. Several years ago while flipping through various folklorish books, I came across a weird superstitious holiday called Hollantide that originally fell on the eleventh. And don't forget those silly horoscopes. Just look what The Onion had in store for me:

You will score a major victory at work when you're able to produce documentation proving that the appropriate person has died and made you God.

Whoohoo! How'd they know? My name even means "goddess" in Greek!
