Holiday o' the day: WTF Day
Yesterday, the witchy web was celebrating Imbolc, the diametric opposite of Samhain. Where Samhain (Halloween) is about the year getting dark and the souls of the dead wandering the earth for a night and everyone knows all about it, Imbolc is about the return of spring, and the first stirrings of life, and everybody assumes you just choked a little bit when you say it.
It's a holiday with a long and storied history, which has survived into modern times in the tradition of going out on February 2nd to ask a rodent about the weather.
As today is also the birthday of Ayn Rand and James Joyce, and the anniversary of the Dyatlov Pass incident, I think it's more appropriate to celebrate it as WTF Day - a day to look at shit that just don't make sense and say, "No, seriously, WTF?"
