Looking for a reason to celebrate today, or just a reason to skip out on your obligations? You could look through
Religious seasonal days of celebration and holy days , check if today is covered by
Holiday for Every Day yet, or keep things simple and rely on a
Calendar of the Saints like the
Catholic feast days or Greek Saints Days from the
Orthodox Ministry Access Calendar. If you like to be more traditional, you could go with the
Medievalist's On-line Calendar of Saints, which only lists people recognized as saints in the Middle Ages and Renaissance. Or, if you feel lucky,
check for special Google logos (designed by
Dennis Hwang). For instance, today is the first day of
Spring, and
the 40th anniversary of
The Very Hungry Caterpillar.
