1/364

Today is the first day of the new year. 01/01. People all over the world are turning to the first page of their calendars. No one has to think about what the date is. It is a no brainer. Each year I have a different type of calendar. It depends on who is giving them out for free. I mainly use the bank ones. Years ago I used the school district ones but since I no longer need to know when the next PTA meeting is, I toss that calendar in the garbage when I get it. Some years I use the Jewish calendar. Other years the calendar has no holidays on it. This year I am using what I call the "race to the end" calendar. It is the one that has a countdown. Today Is January 1, so the date says 1/364, day one of the year, three hundred and sixty four to go. Why would I care how many days are left? I have never been asked to tell someone how many days until the year ends. I guess it is more for trivia than useful knowledge.
