Beannachtam na Feile Padraig!

it's st paddy's day or feile padraig if you really want to get technical. no, i'm not really wearing green today, or at least not currently. i'm not really that irish, more scottish, and more scandinavian at that.

besides it's only in the last two hundred years that people wore green to celebrate the day. previously the color was red, but then the darn english decided to change their military uniforms to red so thus the irish switched from red to green. oh, yes... i am a font of useless knowledge!!

anyway, i am probably going out with a group of friends and my younger sister as a girls night out. i definitely will not be drinking green beer. if god had intended beer to be green it would be that way. hopefully i'll be able to listen to some good irish music and i'll even try not to dance to it. we shall see. my parents are going to an informal concert of different local musicians which should be pretty neat to hear about.

if i'm going out tonight, i definitely need to get some work done. beannachtam na feile padraig everyone!!
