I am sitting here with little green shamrocks stuck to my ear lobes. A co-worker graced me with them this morning. She also put one on my computer screen.
I have never been one to celebrate St. Patty's day all that much, even though I do have a fair bit of Irish in me. Ireland's patron saint has never scored a lot of points from me for his work as a Christian missionary. Not that I'm singling him out particularly. I'm just not too keen on anyone who goes to a place where folks have a perfectly good and workable religion thank you very much and converts them to Catholicism. He must have been great at his job though. It only took him 28 years to convert the entire island to Christianity.
On the flip side, some good things happened on March 17th. Two good friends of mine were born on this date. Happy Birthday Ted and Darius!
