Saint Patrick's Day

Post by IrishTiger »

Go figure....I'm part Irish (yes, the other part is Tiger) and I don't have anything green to wear. :P

Anyway, how do you celebrate today? Listen to the AIO story about St. Patrick? Have a boiled dinner (that's what I'm doing ;)) Dance a jig? :boohoo: ....hmm we need an Irish smiley....

I don't have time to go find a quote by St. Patrick, but here's an Irish proverb:

If you're lucky enough to be Irish...
You're lucky enough!

2 Corinthians 12:10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

I’m not wearing green, but I’m currently chewing some green gum! \:D/
(Entirely by coincidence, I forgot it was St. Patrick’s Day until I left the house.)

didn't know it was St. Patrick's day until breakfast when my sister mentioned it. :anxious: Coincidentally, I am wearing green, which I don't usually. \:D/

I didn't realize it was St Patrick's Day even after my friend was dressed head to toe in green. I thought it was slightly odd, but now it makes sense.
So I'm not celebrating it basically.

I was in Dublin city this year, for once. And I kind of forgot about it. So I didn't do anything. :( Boo Smaug.
