Odd Holiday #12--Sea Monkey Day
Yes, you read that right. It's Sea Monkey Appreciation Day.
What's so sad is that I actually kind of want some. I didn't until I read this site and then discovered that they require less care than even goldfish. Surely I could keep a few sea monkeys alive...
Anyway, if you have some sea monkeys (does anyone? I'd love to know if you do!), go appreciate them. If not, perhaps you can have shrimp for dinner and appreciate them in a much broader sense.
Some fun facts for you about sea monkeys to help you appreciate them:
--They have 3 eyes when they're born
--They can reproduce either sexually or asexually
--They breathe through their feet
There now, aren't you appreciative??

That is so funny. I didn't know they had their own day. I remember friends having them when I was a kid. Great post.

Are sea monkeys a verified species? [stunned]
