Today is [Towel Day](http://www.towelday.kojv.net/). In memory of Douglas Adams I have my towel over my shoulder as I sit at work. It’s been interesting trying to explain it to the coworkers (for some reason, no customers have asked)

Anyone else participating? Or as shocked as I was to realize that it’s been six years? Or just HHGTTG fans out there? OK, I know the answer to that last one…

I left my towel at home ☹ but I have been greeting everyone with “do you know where your towel is?” or “Happy Towel Day!”

Of course, I am getting weird looks and I think my employer is looking into having me institutionalised…
