So I went to the mall the other day. I love the store “Calendar Club”, but man, some of the calendars they had were really specific. They had to have had a calendar for a fan of virtually anything.
So…since this new year started not too long ago, what’s your 2006 calendar of? Be it a typical wall calendar or a daily one, what/who does it feature?
Me, I have a lighthouses wall calendar. Shows wonderful views of scenic lighthouses. Pretty nice.
I have an Eats, Shoots & Leaves page-a-day calendar (which unfortunately appears to just be the text of the book split into a paragraph or two per day). Still entertaining.
Only Mostly Missus sports the Foxtrot daily*. She also has some junk freebie month calendar from her school.
*Have I doted lately on how lucky I am to have a geek fiancee?
Mine is the Gatti di Roma (Cats of Rome) calendar I picked up on my trip to Italy last year. I love the cats just hanging out in the ruins of the Colisseum.
At work I have the freebee Nature Conservancy calendar.
Ok, I always buy three calendars a year, and they’re always different. Ever since Gary Larson quit the desk calendar thing, ( :mad: ) I’ve had to look for new ones.
Wall Calendar: This year I got LOTR. Why not, right?
Desk Calendar (small): Get Fuzzy. Thought I’d try it out.
Planner: Far Side

Wonder if we have the same lighthouses? Ours are midwest (Lake Superior, etc.) We’ve been looking for a cheap kitten (not CAT, kitten!) calendar, but haven’t found one yet. Have a model railroad one and something else in the back room. Also a plain ‘printed off the computer’ one that I tape to the top of the (other) moniter so that when I need to project dates, I don’t have to squint at the calendar on the wall.
I have a Dilbert day-by-day calendar for 2006. I’ve been getting one every year since 1996, following a 7-year run of Far Side Off-the-Wall calendars.
For the monthly view, every Father’s Day, my wife gets me a calendar with family pictures from the previous year. These run from July through June rather than covering a single numeric calendar year.
And we also have a big, plain Staples wall calendar for planning and scheduling and remembering stuff.
I have the Happy Bunny calendar at work…it was a gift from a coworker though browsing through it I might have to skip some months as some of the sayings are not really work-safe
