We’re never going to stop trying to make fetch happen #MeanGirlsDay

When is there ever a day that isn’t perfect to quote Mean Girls, but October 3rd is a particularly noteworthy date for the 2004 hit movie and its band of dedicated fans (myself included!). For those who don’t know, October 3rd was the day when things started to heat up between Aaron Samuels and Cady. He asked her what day it was, and she replied, “It’s October 3rd.”
