On the day that Everyone's Irish!


So this is just a quick post to wish everyone a great big happy St. Patrick's day!

I can't say that I'm a heavy drinker, like most in my family. My sisters can raise a glass with the best of 'em and drink all night without passing out falling asleep. Even my Mom can guzzle handle her booze, when she chooses to drink. I, on the other hand, am a total sissy lightweight. If my father wasn't already dead, those few words would've probably dropped him dead on the very spot where he stood.


Whatever the case may be, I'm still Irish and proud, and this is the one night of the year, other than of course, my birthday, where I'll have a few with family; drink and be merry.

Everyone is Irish on St. Patty's Day! So raise a glass and Sláinte!

Lucky, I've never really been able to drink. A couple of glasses of wine is always nice. I like the little tipsy feeling, but man, when I drink too much, I'm not a pretty sight. Haha.


Angry Man, damn skippy!

Malach, I don't know what's made you be so obnoxious to me lately, but I didn't do anything to fucking deserve it.

Happy St Patrick's Day. I don't drink, but I will have a Diet Dr Pepper in honor of the occasion. :)

Jay said...

I'm not nearly the drinker I used to be. I'm so out of practice.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

I love the Irish, I wish I was more than half. With the Scottish on the other side, I'm heading for alcoholism & sheep fucking. Good Times!

KaB said...

Up the Irish & their pints of Guinness!

I'm Irish...my name is Irish...my dad is Irish...fook me...being Irish is bloody brilliant!

Happy St. Paddy's day :)

Kitty said...

Sláinte SC - hope you had a brilliant day. x

PS I too have the Irish genes.

Simply Curious said...

Ron, I actually bought a 2 liter of Diet Dr Pepper last night, haha. Like I said, I'm not a very big drinker. Sláinte!


Jay, I hope you got warmed up before you jumped right in then! Happy belated!


Angel, thanks! :)


C.Rag, Irish are such lovable people. Sheep, not so much... At least not in the kind of lovin' you're talkin' about.


Kab, I've been blessed (or cursed) with the same traits you just mentioned. I don't think a name could be more Irish than mine. For obvious reasons I can't post my name on my blog, but I know exactly what you're talking about. Happy Belated St Paddy's.


Kitty, Sláinte!!! I think everyone has a touch of Irish in them, Our ancestors were even hornier than the Irish men of today.

Hope it was a great day for you! I also have some Irish lineage, but I didn't drink yesterday. Just can't do it on a work night anymore!

Jen said...

From one "of Irish Heritage" to another - Slainte Mhath!

Hope it was a good one. . . .

A little late but Happy Irish back at ya. I didn't drink green beer this year, didn't really celebrate. I'll make up for it double next year. ;)

Simply Curious said...

Ann, it *was* a good day. Come on...one beer on a work night? You're not 70...


Jen, thank you! And the same goes for you. Hope you had a good time, too, sweetie.


Random, I also didn't really do as much as I have in past years. Next year we'll both make up for it! Actually, I think I was supposed to be making up for lack of celebrating last year...but don't tell anyone. ;)
