Peanut Butter Lover's Month November is... Slaughter Month November 1 is... Plan Your Epitaph Day November 4 is... Waiting For The Barbarians Day November 5 is... Gunpowder Day November 8 is... Dunce Day November 9 is... Chaos Never Dies Day November 13 is... National Indian Pudding Day November 18 is... Occult Day November 20 is... Absurdity Day November 22 is... Start Your Own Country Day November 28 is... Make Your Own Head Day November 30 is... Stay At Home Because You're Well Day

She quietly sneaks out of the house and returns at her normal time. "That was fun," says the brunette. "We should do it again sometime." "No way," says the blonde. "I almost got caught."
