thought it would be funny to text a few of my close friends and say Happy Penis Day it is 07/07/07 and anyone reading profiles or personals online knows that the word penis and the number 7 appear together quite frequently.  (Sorry if your reading this Mom).  It has been an hour and 18 min and not a single person has replied back. Big 0 for 7.  At first I blamed the iphone, AT&T’s network has been slow with all the new power users.  So, to make myself feel better I sent Shelton a text - he got in less than seven seconds.  the iphone theory, shot all to shit.

Could it be that not everyone thinks penis day is as funny as I do or did ? (My confidence is slowly growing smaller)

Could everyone be just not know how to respond? (seriously what would be a good response ?)

Perhaps I should not just make up holidays while driving down I77.  Perhaps ‘pulling off’ (ok bad double pun) a Hallmark-ish type of holiday, requires more than a random correlation between the date a the contents of my less than clean mind.  I’m sure the ADD and skipping my Ritalin today have played a small part in all this.

While working on this post I decided to try one other person and just to see if I would get any reply.  I was surprised and happy when I did.  I think having a new iphone and wanting to play with the text feature might explain the quick response.  But I’ll take it.  A brief transcript is listed below:

Me: (07/07/07 2:28 pm) Happy Penis Day its 7/7/07 penis day.

Friend:  (07/07/07 2:39 pm) You’re the first person to text me.  I’m at the zoo.

Me: (07/07/07 2:44 pm) Sweet take a picture of a monkeys wang or some kind of wang.  Your the only person to reply to my new holiday.  Details on phat shortly.  Have fun and email me photo for my post if you get chance.

So Happy Penis day !
