How I don't feel like paying these bills day? It's a day where everybody throws all their bills in a hat and one gets picked out - that's the one you don't have to pay for a whole year. I got excited just thinking about it. Let's have Oprah do the drawing so she can say You've got no mortgage! And You've got no car note!
#MyPersonalHoliday No Bills Day. Let's get it!

LOL! That would totally work.

2010-03-24T13:17:14.908-05:00

#MyPersonalHoliday would be called Red Eye Day. A celebration of the half closed red eye.

#MyPersonalHoliday would be on any 2 days of the year (personal choice, we'll need 2 days for this), because it's a day inwhich nobody can ask you "what's wrong with your eyes"

#MyPersonalHoliday would have the colors red & black (of course)

#MyPersonalHoliday would be toasted anything of your choice. That's the beauty of this day. Some people cry and thus have red eyes after sex. Some drink red wine (to much) and thus... have red eyes. Some people smoke thangs they shouldn't smoke and... have red eyes. Some people hop on the red eye flight to meet Mr. or Mrs. Strange Love, in the red light district, I mean, Red Roof Inn. Then they come back on the red eye flight, with that morning after look... yes, sheepish red eyes (after glow). Some people have men or women that like to lay hands on each other. Well, sometimes they leave black & blue, and red eyes. Ouch!

#MyPersonalHoliday's slogan would be "Heaven Must Be Like This"... or something like that :-)

But remember, the beauty of this holiday is that nobody can ask "what's wrong with your eyes". Yep, don't ask, don't tell.

I would co-sign on both of these holidays. In my world, the NFL Season is a season unto itself. Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall, NFL Season - LOL.

Let's see if we can get I Love Shoes Day sponsored by Dr Scholl's. The symbol for the day would be Cinderella's glass slipper with the slogan: Never doubt the importance of wearing the right shoes ;-)

#MyPersonalHoliday would be Leave a Black Man Alone day. A 24 hour period were no one gets profiled, harassed, sneered at pulled over for DWB or told "you ain't shit"
Color - black, symbol - black pwer fist ;-)

Colors could be whatever your team colors are. We need officially opening ceremony in the morning with the Commish getting doused with Gatorade
Official food - Buffalo Wings and Ribs.

2010-03-24T12:12:08.542-05:00

I can get into this one. National Sleep In, the day kicks off with Laurence Fishburne (keeping the all things Morpheus theme going), dressed in purple pajamas declaring "Now I lay me down to sleep", the day could be sponsored by Nyquil... this one has potential.

#MyPersonalHoliday would be SuperBowlMonday - why pretend we want to work the day after

#MyPersonalHoliday would be call I Love Shoes Day!...

2010-03-24T11:37:14.736-05:00

#MyPersonalHoliday would be call I Love Shoes Day! It would be celebrated on the first day of each season (as to be consistent with seasonal trends).
#MyPersonalHoliday would close all stores except department and shoe stores, and boutique shoe shops.
#MyPersonalHoliday would give away one pair of the essential shoes or boots (must be valued between $100 and $500) that EVERY woman should own (i.e. evening shoe, classic boot, weather boot, flat, sneaker, and classic pump) at the start of each season.
#MyPersonalHoliday would order each shoe designer to increase production of extended sizes (e.g. size 13) and special sizes (e.g. wide width) for those women who want to be fashionable, but can’t because no one makes shoes in their sizes. Big feet women need love, too.
#MyPersonalHoliday would require each woman to sign a “Pedicure Pledge.” It’s horrible to see women with great shoes and busted feet. Ugh!
#MyPersonalHoliday would include on-site stylists to assist the less fashionable with their selections and provide style tips on how to dress the shoe.
#MyPersonalHoliday would include walking coaches, preferably those who have worked closely with models, Ms. Jay from America’s Next Top Model would be in charge of recruitment and placement.
#MyPersonalHoliday spokespersons would be June Ambrose, Stacy London, Tim Gunn and former White House Social Secretary and socialite Desiree Rogers.
#MyPersonalHoliday would include tributes to one iconic shoe designer each quarter. I believe the first person to be honored would be none other than Manolo Blahnik. (With Rene Caovilla, a.k.a. Rene Cavalli, to be honored the next Shoe Day.)

2010-03-24T10:50:27.192-05:00

#MyPersonalHoliday would be called Morpheus' Day. Morpheus is the greek god of dreams and sleep. I like sleeping. A lot.
#MyPersonalHoliday would be celebrated the Monday after any 3 day weekend/national holiday, because it would be a day for recuperation and rest
#MyPersonalHoliday probably should use dark colors like black for it's celebration, but I'm going to go with purple and blue, because they're dark-ish and I love purple as we've discussed.
#MyPersonalHoliday would be celebrated by sleep, watching good movies and limited movement.

I'm going to need this day on Monday. Help me Jesus.
