It's September! Prelude to the holiday season. But why wait for Halloween, Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Christmas, etc.? Create your personal holiday today -- and all the falderol that goes with it. Are there decorations? Special foods? A signature cocktail?
My new holiday is Walloween. It's the one day of the year that I get to wallow in whatever bad mood I choose. I celebrated Walloween early this year, and went full self-pity mode. So far, Walloween doesn't have decorations (I'm open to suggestions), but there is a costume: ratty old sweats and fuzzy warm socks. Naturally, the traditional Walloween foods include chocolate. And more chocolate. Wrapped up with a potato chip chaser, because Walloween is, after all, a salty holiday.
Your turn!

| Don't you love words? I forgot that "wallow" can also be a physical depression. Think of happy, happy hippos in their wallow. Hmmm. Now I'm thinking mud pits. That opens the door to completely different Walloween traditions ... |

Walloween. 😺 Thanks for the laugh. For decorations, I think you should have a popped black balloon 🎈
