I'm going with the secret third option--it is likely a holiday somewhere. Just not here, where I am.

Well, It's town picnic day where I live. I don't know exactly what we are celebrating, but there's fireworks and beer...if that doesn't sound like a holiday I don't know what does.

Today for me was a holiday in that I spent many hours in a thrift store while mildly inebriated with an attractive, albeit indecisive stoner. Also, I got to play guitars and have beer for breakfast. Holiday indeed.
