not my day

Today is National Root Canal Appreciation Day.  My first reaction, when I heard this, is that I really appreciate that I have never, ever had to have a root canal procedure.  I started to wonder, who would appreciate root canals?  Certainly not anyone sitting in a dentist's chair.  Then the obvious answer occurred to me.  This is a special day for dentists.  I have no doubt that they do cheery little happy dances all the way to the bank after every root canal.  Today is also National Nutty Fudge Day.  I certainly appreciate nutty fudge way more than root canals but it occurs to me that this might also be a special day created by dentists to encourage the eating of nutty fudge which will no doubt lead to some kinds of dental work, probably including root canals.  I'm beginning to suspect collusion between dentists and candy makers.  Does that make me a conspiracy theorist?
