What's on Your Calender? (Vanity rant)

desktop calender at work | 12/09/04 | self

While looking at the new calender on the desk at work last night I noticed that on January 20th 2005 there is nothing mentioned about the Presidential Inauguration on that day, BUT what is there is this (Eid) al Adha

So I look through the rest of the months and find this (Eid) al Fitr on November 4th 2005

This is on the Staples Desk Calender made by Mead Westvaco Consumer and Office Products.

IMO this is absurd that in this day and age (post 9/11) we have to see this on a calender and it NOT have anything about Inauguration of the President < /rant >

[akorahil]

My Out look has the same notations Have no notations on my copy of day runner.

The inauguration of the President of the United States of America is not a holiday.

"What's on Your Calender?"

Lines, days of the week, little numbers in the corners, random notes/phone numbers, coffee stain, etc.

I expect similar things when I flip the page but I will check... Yep.

Bet it doesn't have General Lee's Birthday on January 19th, either. Sad.

At least you HAVE a desktop calendar. To make a long story short, I can't get a new one, not with any office funds at least. After this month is over, I won't have any. :( Pity me, PITY ME DAMMIT!

Alright, I'm off. Enough FReeping for one day. I guess I might as well do some work while at work. :::: exaggerated, exceedingly dramatic SIGH :::::

[ChefKeith]

I know that

[ChefKeith]

Any good Southerner just reads that in to the MLK thing without even thinking about it.

Then what's the beef? Last time I looked, only holidays are so noted on calendars.

[ChefKeith]

Want me to send you this one?

or should we start a mini FR Calender-a-thon

[ChefKeith]

I just wanted to bitch about it

I just wanted to bitch about it

Right, then. Carry on!

[Tax-chick]

LOL - we always observe Lee-Jackson Day, and it's also our youngest son's birthday.
