It's almost that time of year

For some people, a holiday means another pain in the butt. Possibly torture as family members come over for a big meal where you may even be forced to sit for hours talking and repeating things over and over for old gramps and grammies. Yeah, there is lots of food, and yeah there is lots of drank, but what else really? People have seemed to throw aside the meaning of whatever holiday in particular it may be, thanksgiving, christmas, and instead enjoy recieving gifts and forgetting the meaning behind that holiday altogether. Then comes Valentine's day, which we all know is another reason to either appreicate your loved one, feel bad for yourself if you don't have someone, or maybe even celebrate being alone. Although my valentine's day consisted of getting wine drunk, falling in the mud, taking a $3.50 taxi ride home, and falling asleep eating a hot dog in my bed, it is definitely safe to say that the celebration of holidays is still on the rise.
What about the little holidays though? The ones we idahoans sometimes forget about, the ones like halloween that bear no meaning in particular but chaos or a little white lie. I guess what I'm getting at is did you forget the next holiday? For if you do, you will only be prone to lies beyond lies, tricks beyond tricks. They are coming for you no doubt. And if they aren't coming for you, you are coming for them. For April Fools is right around the corner and you have to be on your best game. We all have been fooled. It is the one holiday a year which we are allowed to lie, fib, make believe. It is the one holiday that is as meaningless to some as the rest; but that is the whole point. Make no sense, lie your heart out, get someone to believe some kind of fallacy. It's almost here...
