A to Z 2024: N is for National Wear Your Pajamas To Work Day

#AtoZChallenge 2024 letter N

 For The A to Z Challenge this year, I am focusing on everyday holidays. Each day there are multiple unusual things to celebrate.  Every day of the challenge I look for an event taking place that day and pair it with the letter of the day.  I have also made up 5 holidays to coincide with the vowel days of the challenge.  At the end of each post I will share a special song of the day for that day's letter.  At the end of the month, these songs will be assembled in a to z keepsake playlist on Spotify.  Every day is a celebration, let's unwrap today's together. 

April 16th is National Wear Your Pajamas To Work

National Wear Your Pajamas To Work Day was started 10 years ago by PajamaGram.  It is held on April 16th each year to coincide with Tax Day being April 15th.  The idea was to make April 16th a more casual relaxing day for those who may have been up late the night before finishing their taxes.  

Pajama days are very popular at schools.  When there is a spirit week at one of our schools or the alphabet countdown that happens at the end of the year.  There is usually a pajama day.  Before I was a building sub and would go to different schools each day, I would often sub when there was a pajama day, but I wouldn't usually be aware of it until I got to school day.  When I started doing long term subbing, I would get a little more heads up about the coming events.  Maybe for Christmas this year I will ask for Captain America pajamas and then the next pajama day I can bring my Captain America Build-A-Bear AKA Captain Abearica AKA Steve Pawgers to school as well.

Song of the Day is Nothing But The Wind by Pierce Pettis


I would like to clarify that when I say that the song is by a certain artist, all I mean is that that artist performs that song on the Spotify playlist.  In the above video, Pettis correctly attrributes the song to the late great Mark Heard.  Speaking of the Spotify mix tape, here it is so far...
