Booked Dates: Mother's Day

So, I always do a little research for Booked Dates, and this one is no exception. And, even though so many people don't like it, I used Wiki. It's actually pretty reliable for something as casual as a blog.

But does anyone ever wonder who puts the pictures on Wiki? You can search a celebrity and a billion photos of him or her looking awesome pop up, but one of the ugliest photos is used for his or her Wiki page. I guess it's to show their real side. But this is a little different.

As you can see, this is a picture of the Wiki Mother's Day page. Seems pretty legit, right? But what caught my eye was the little pink/purple/blue/green color on the right. The Mother's Day card. It's cute and obviously done by a kid (I hope), but there's nothing that stands out about it. What I want to know is why that particular card was chosen. Why, out of the millions of other cards, did someone pick this one?

...Anyway. Mother's Day is to celebrate mothers. And EVERYONE should be celebrating it. Trust me; everyone has a mother. 

So, here's a shout out to all those mothers or mothers to be...HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!

Booked Dates: Star Wars Day

Hehe....did you know there was a Star Wars Day? May the fourth be with you...get it? Get it?

Well, I thought it was funny.

So, since I don't have much of a back story to give you (other than talking about Star Wars history), here's a picture in honor of the day.

Oh, I actually do have something to say about it. This might be old news to some of you, but did you know that Star Wars was bought out by Disney? I swear, one day Disney is going to take over the whole movie industry.

Booked Dates: April Fool's Day

I wasn't actually sure which category I should put this post under. When I was forming this post in my mind earlier in the day, I had planned for it to be a Footnote. But then I realized what day it was today; April Fool's Day.

This is what got me; is April Fool's Day considered a holiday? Or is it just a special title given to the first of April for no reason in particular. But then I thought, "Well, that would be stupid if a day in April was pronounced a day for pranks and jokes for no reason at all! Everything has a reason even if it's just a 'Because I felt like it' reason!" So what does this mean? I had to look it up!

I'm pretty sure that April Fool's Day isn't a religious holiday, thank goodness. For a while there, I thought all of the holidays that I celebrated had religious origins (not that there's anything wrong with the origins being from a religion, but variety is the spice of life). It's kinda of funny to me that I'm writing another Booked Date blog so soon, the day after Easter!

But I was going to talk about something else, except I forgot. So, instead, I'm going to post a few pictures I found of April Fool's Day jokes.

A fake crash

Pretty self-explanatory
LOL!
