March 17, 2005 >> Shamrock Shyster

It's Saint Patrick's Day! I know this because Google has tastefully decorated their logo with a shamrock hat and a great deal of vomitous green. I can also scan my MSN contact list and read names boasting about being drunk at noon, and how everyone's Irish for a day, and just plain boring old "Happy St. Paddy's Day!" I think I might go with that one myself, because sometimes it's more fun to conform than to make the dreary effort to be witty and cynical.

Whoops, I lied!

Truthfully 'nuff, I don't especially feel like drinking today. I think I'm still in recovery from last weekend's shenannigans or I might be sick or something... whatever the deal is, my mind goes "green beer motherfucker!" and my internal organs or whatever say "try it and we'll make sure that the Irish never invite you back." Which would be a pity, because I have a great deal of admiration for the Irish and the fact that they still have an entire day dedicated to getting smash-faced despite the fact that my ancestors so rudely tried to colonize them.

So I'm stuck at a crossroads, trying my darndest not to be cynical (which is generally my response to disappointment) and debating whether or not my stomach is bluffing. Because it has in the past.

At the very least I think I should get dressed. Everything starts from there.
