On Footsie Day, or, more officially, the Day of the Foot, the practice of shoe wearing is cast aside. According to the rules set forth by the holiday's great founders (Daddy and Uncle David), the day prior to Spring is the highly celebrated start to a barefooted summer. Depending on the year, we either anticipate the day with great agitation as we grudgingly keep our feet covered during all outdoor excursions, or, in the harsher springs, we must brave the last snow patches in order to fulfill the celebratory rituals. Either way, the decades-old holiday persists.
Go mark your calendars.
