January is actually the cruelest month- there are only a few actual
holidays for the Book Elves to celebrate, so they fall back on
“second-tier” celebrations, for better or (usually) worse. One “holiday”
they are especially fond of is January 3rd's Fruitcake Toss Day which
coincides (coincidentally?) with Humiliation Day. We have barely recovered
from Bean Day on the 6th before it's time for Bubble Bath Day on the 8th.
Play God Day (January 9) has been permanently banned in the Cataloging
Cave, but the 10th's Peculiar People Day is always a good time. The less
said about Feast of Fabulous Wild Men Day on the 12th the better, likewise
the 14th’s Dress Up Your Pet Day -that may be the next day we have to ban.

But before the Book Elves ran out to get supplies for National Popcorn Day
(the 19th), National Pie Day (the 23rd) and National Kazoo Day (the 28th)
they finished our latest catalog, which can be viewed or downloaded as a
.pdf file here ->
