From Watch Synchronization Day on July 8 — the place she and Ben Wyatt (Adam Scott) sync their watches so they’re going to “at all times be in cohesion, like their hearts” — to Intercourse Day on April 24 — the day she and Ben witnessed two custodians doing the deed in a provide closet — there may be not anything Leslie would possibly not have fun. On the other hand, one vacation reigns over the others because the worst of the bunch. Specifically, Ann Day, which falls on March 14 — the date Ben informed Leslie that he concept Ann used to be great.
Despite the fact that Leslie and Ben fall for every different, get married and ultimately get started a circle of relatives, one may just argue that Ann Perkins (Rashida Jones) is in fact the affection of Leslie’s existence. From Parks and Recreation‘s early days to Ann’s season 6 go out, Leslie is continuously professing her love for her BFF (or appearing it via a sequence of now and again ill-informed grand gestures). So, it must come as no marvel that Leslie would devote a complete day to her.
Unusually, despite the fact that, Ann is not in fact part of Ann Day.
As Leslie explains, it is as an alternative “an afternoon about Ann, no longer Ann’s day about herself.” In different phrases, it is like a birthday celebration the place the one that is ringing in some other 12 months on the earth is not invited to attend.
That is almost certainly high-quality if you are, say, George Washington, however no doubt much less so if you are Ann and your best pals are off having an out of this world time with out you.
