You wouldn't know it from the commercials on your television, of course, but there really is an entire, standard-size month sandwiched in the calendar after Halloween and before Christmas. Kids, if you're skeptical about this (and who can blame you?) check your calendars at home. We'll wait right here while you check.

OK, now do you believe us?
November is Family Literacy Month, National Adoption Month, Lung Cancer Awareness Month, and Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month.
November is also International Impotency Awareness Month. Oh, great! There might be more Viagra or Cialis commercials this month? Well, maybe not: After all, there are a lot of Christmas commercials to air. So there is -- finally -- one good thing to say about early Christmas commercials.
This will also be National Family Caregiver Month.
Celebrate November by writing the Great American Novel. It's National Novel Writing Month.
But there are some observances planned for November that we here at The Blog of Days can not get behind. To wit: The organizers of World Vegan Month failed to take into account that the United States celebrates Thanksgiving in November. Of course, maybe turkeys are behind World Vegan Month.
