Today's Holidays

Celebrate the weird stuff. We do.

Holiday #1 of 4

It&rsquo;s sanctioned daydreaming, brought to you by the same folks who think burnout can be fixed with a calendar and a margarita. You&rsquo;re not booking a trip&mdash;you&rsquo;re having a nervous breakdown in Excel with palm trees.
