By Dawn Rosenberg McKay, About.com

You know that boring calendar you have sitting there on your desk? It doesn't really do much for you, does it? Well, of course it tells you what day it is, and what your plans are (if you write them in). But, wouldn't you like something that is... well... a little more interesting? Here are 10 calendars that will either inspire you, educate you, make you laugh, or tell you how to succeed at work.

1. The Original Sudoku 2009 Calendar

2. The Office: Jokes, Quotes and Anecdotes 2009 Calendar

Not, The Office, as in the television show as I thought when I first saw this, but a great calendar nonetheless. You'll find silly office terminology, humorous quotes, funny one liners and resume "don'ts." The best part — each page is a sticky note so you can share with your co-workers.
