    You know it has to be bad when there is a national week of “Be nice to New Jersey.” Obviously there is not much reason to be nice to NJ on a regular basis, so someone had to create a week dedicated to it. I think I am loving “I forgot day” and “Gummi Worm Day” though. lol
    Oh, and I LOVE the 4th of July! I’m going to be in D.C. for it this year!

    I don’t think your birthday qualifies as a holiday… :) If you work on your birthday then it isn’t considered a holiday. the definition of holiday is: a day of festivity or recreation when no work is done.

    And I will have a very valid reason for not wishing you happy birthday since it is on “I forgot day” :)

    I will do whatever I want on my birthday, so if I want to work I will work, and if I think it is a holiday then let me think that. :)
