So we are headed face first into the weekend and if you aren’t excited already about it being FRIDAY JULY 29th, I am going to give you something to celebrate!!! TODAY is National Lipstick Day… Did you know, Throughout the ages, controversy surrounded lipstick. British Parliament banned it in 1770 calling it a devilish attempt to trick men into marriage. In some circles, lipstick was associated with witchcraft. Occasionally, lipstick contained poisonous materials. It is said Sarah Bernhardt created a scandal by applying “lip rouge” in public. Surprisingly, George Washington supposedly wore lipstick. While Queen Victoria considered wearing lipstick impolite, one of her statesmen had a different opinion. During World War II, Winston Churchill thought the lip color boosted morale in an excellent way. Of course, versatility is lipstick’s brand. It changes with a mood or with the scenery. Whether lipstick defines your attitude or channels your inner spirit, wear it TODAY. No matter your style, lipstick adds a subtle accent or a bold statement. Let your lips speak. However, punctuate it with your lipstick.
If that doesn’t trip your trigger how about celebrating National Lasagna Day. YEP that’s today too… OR maybe National Get Gnarly Day is more your speed… The word “Gnarly” gets a bad rap. It CAN mean “bad” or “dangerous” but can also be exciting. Surfers often use the term to describe the waves they tackle. Much like surfers challenging the waves, Get Gnarly Day challenges us to put some Gnarliness into everything we do.
And if all else fails… Today is National Talk in an Elevator Day… You got it, on the last Friday of July every year you are encouraged to strike up a conversation with someone in an elevator… If you ever watched NCIS you KNOW important stuff gets discussed in the Elevator… Gibbs never passed up an opportunity to hit the stall button so that a personal or confidential conversation could happen. But really all you have to do to celebrate is take a breath and say HI, How are you to the stranger riding up or down with you!
