by itchy fish

When you think of July holidays, Independence Day is probably the first that comes to mind. There are a lot of holidays in July; here is a list of observances to celebrate each day this month – and, of course, ideas for celebrating them.

July 1: Zip Code Day – Honor this holiday by memorizing the zip codes for all the neighboring cities.

July 2: I Forgot Day – Today you don’t need an excuse; just say, “Sorry – I forgot.”

July 3: Compliment Your Mirror Day – Take a good look in the mirror and compliment the person you see on the other side.

July 4: Independence from Meat Day – No, it’s not just Independence Day on the 4th of July; it’s also Independence from Meat Day!

July 5: *Free* July 5th is a Wild Card – Make up your own holiday.

July 6: Take Your Webmaster to Lunch Day – I wonder who made up this holiday…?

July 7: Chocolate Day – Finally, it’s here! You can eat all the chocolate you want – for the whole day – without the guilt.

July 8: SCUD Day (Savor the Comic, Unplug the Drama) – Sounds like a scuddy holiday.

July 9: Martyrdom of the Bab – I was curious who the Bab was, so I looked it up. No wonder I didn’t know what it was; Martyrdom of the Bab is a Baha’i holiday. Silly me.

July 10: Don’t Step on a Bee Day – Every day should be don’t step on a bee day. I’ve done it. It hurts.

July 11: World Population Day – You make up less than a billionth of the world population. Don’t you feel special?

July 12: International Town Criers Day – I bet you didn’t know the town crier had a day of his own, did you?

July 13: Embrace Your Geekness Day – Come on, we all have an inner geekness. Embrace it!

July 14: *Free* Here is another Wild Card. Take your pick.

July 15: Gummi Worm Day – Mmm…another excuse to celebrate sugar!

July 16: Hot Dog Night (2010) – How will you celebrate Hot Dog Night 2010?

July 17: Yellow Pig Day – If you can’t find a yellow pig, just paint one yellow. I’m sure no one will notice.

July 18: National Ice Cream Day (2010) – Have it any way you want.

July 19: National Get Out of the Dog House Day – What were you doing in there, anyway?

July 20: National Lollipop Day – Jeez, whoever makes up the national holidays sure likes his or her sugar! I won’t complain, though.
