Happy Festival of Sleep Day! It's also Momento Mori "Remember You Die" Day (lovely, thanks for the reminder. jerk.), Tolkien Day, Chocolate Covered Cherries Day and Fruitcake Toss Day. I suppose I could toss a few of you. Only the light ones though, I don't want to throw out a shoulder or anything. Today's birthdays include Mel Gibson , Danica McKellar [Winnie Cooper!] , J.R.R. Tolkien , and Shannon Sturges . Have a one good one! Buy cheap AOC gold here ! On this day in history...
