St. Patricks Day

Since today is a globally recognized day, I figured I should post something.

My brother and his friends visited today. I made them quite the meal. It was delicious, and appropriate for Lent. (Even with the apparent Pope exemption for today.)

We are having people over tonight. I don't know if I will know many of those who stop by.

A friend I haven't talked to since last summer dropped me an e-mail. It was exciting to hear from her.

Today is the birthday of my 5th grade teacher. I think she was my most favorite elementary school teacher, so that's why I remember. (Also, who could forget a birthday if it's on a semi-holiday?)

Off to rejoin people down stairs. I'm not drinking green beer tonight. Irish car bombs will do.
