Today's The Day
National or international, days are odd. Yesterday was National Book Day. I wanted to celebrate this but as I looked round my library of a bedroom I thought it a tad redundent. Every day is National Book Day for me. Ah well.
Apparently today is International Womens Day. I feel good about this day. I want to go out into the street and be clapped on the back because I'm a woman, and dammit, I've been being a woman for a good few decades by now so anyone with that sort of commitment deserves praise. I've only once considered an alternative option - somewhere around puberty and for rather unpleasent reasons - but after training as a girl, the woman option was the obvious way to go.
I rather like being a woman on Womens Day. I have a fond mental image that the remainder of my day will be spent getting flowers and the Queen giving a speech on behalf of 50% of the British populace (whilst being serenely smug that she's congratulating herself too).
In any case, whilst the Queen of England is unlikely to offer the Suicidegirls praise in person I shall speak on her behalf and say:
"Well done. You've been a woman for this long, don't give up now. They say a womans work is never done and damn right it isn't. Every day you wake up a woman, every night you go to bed as...a woman. Be strong and remember...you're a woman."
Fun Felidae Fact: My other favorite day is Talk Like A Pirate Day.
Fun Fun Felidae Fact: Told you. I had a wench and a sword and stupid Jack Sparrow hair n all.
