Yellow Shirt Day

Since May, the last Friday of every month has been Yellow Shirt Day at work, thanks to Brian Pitt– it was something he did back in the old days before his mission (He left for his mission in February of 2001 and came back to work here when he got back in February this year).

Anyways, on May 14th I discovered via Korean radio that it was Yellow Day in Korea… (at least for singles it was yellow day). I noticed Brian was wearing a yellow shirt that day and though “man, what are the odds that he knows what yellow day is”, so I e-mailed him and asked him if there was a particular reason why he was wearing that yellow shirt. He responded really excited–

“HA HA!!! You remember the yellow shirt day that was originated back in ’00. I think we should bring it back. Are you in?”

Nope, he had no idea what Yellow Day was, but he was nonetheless very excited that I had “remembered” yellow shirt day and at the prospect of brining it back. So yes, This will be the third time since then, I think, that a number of people here at work have observed yellow shirt day. Ah, so easily amused we are… Brian is hilarious.

In other news, I think I have come down with something– my voice is thrashed and my throat is swollen, though it doesn’t really hurt too much. I guess we’ll find out later today…
