Happy St. Patrick's Day! As an Irish girl, this day is always huge back at home, but this is actually the first time I've not spent St. Patrick's Day with my family. It feels weird, and I don't like it...It just doesn't feel like St. Patrick's Day to me.
I'm trying to be as Irish as I can on my own, though, wearing my favorite 'tis herself sweatshirt, and pinching people for not wearing green, but the luck of the Irish does not seem to be with me today. Usually, we celebrate St. Patrick's Day with morning mass and a continental breakfast sponsored by my parish. Then, Mom starts making corned beef and cabbage (with carrots and potatoes) and we all watch a movie together (the same movie every year, of course: Darby O'Gill and the Little People). You can laugh, but we've been doing this for as long as I can remember, and I love it! Hopefully, next year will be better.
Erin Go Bragh!
