Seize The Day

Things I never knew about when I was young enough to fully enjoy them:

December 30th is National Bacon Day. When I was younger I could eat all the bacon I wanted with neither short or long term consequences. Now I must indulge my bacon urges only periodically.

Butt if you can still afford to do so, by all means go ahead and enjoy bacon all day long.

IBD (that’s International Bacon Day, not Irritable Bowel Disease) is sort of a combination of the Thanksgiving/Christmas holiday tradition of overindulging in food and the New Year’s Eve tradition of overindulging in drink. In short, the perfect storm, so don’t forget to wear your mukluks.

Great. Now that I haven’t been awake at midnight on New Year’s Eve for 10 years. I look forward to the cure for wrinkles by the time I’m 90 as well.
