St. Patrick's Day confusion

Posted by gardenergirl on March 17, 2006, at 14:41:22

Okay, I'm proudly wearing my green today. But then it's chilly here in the house, so I put on my big, oversized, orange fleece shirt for warmth. Now I'm confused. Am I Catholic? Am I Protestant? What am I trying to say with this outfit?

:-D

Obviously very ecumenical or if you add red you can be a traffic light!

Well, you could be trying to say you have no taste.

<grin>

Or you could be saying you need to move to warmer climes. It's 75 today here, clear and sunny(ish) and I'm wearing a green hawaiian shirt, capris and no shoes.

my son said this morning that he doesn't have to wear green because he is irish. He has green blood.

And then he thought for a minutes and said..."I'm irish, scottish, english, italian and catholic." I grinned and said, "Yup." I've done my job - he's a well indoctrinated child. :)

LOL, either he's Irish or an alien! ;)

LOL, sounds like my family. I call myself a "mutt", but I definitely own my Irish, especially today. Or rather, yesterday since it's past midnight now.

LOL, clever! I failed to mention the royal blue sweatpants. I never match when I'm at home. Somebody needs to garanimal me. :)

Sounds lovely. Tuesday the high is back down to 37. Spring is such a big tease.

The folks at the veterinarian's office were all in green. But I think that's everyday. :)

My husband wore burnt orange. I doubt he even thought about it. But then he's not Irish. Not a drop. Probably only celebrated St. Pat's day when he was an undergrad and thought green beer was "cool". bleah.

It was so tragic! Green beer was outlawed.

You know what they say, though: When green beer is outlawed, only outlaws will have green beer.
