Most people are working on this day. It's not a federal holiday or anything.

Working on St. Pat's for the first time in 3 or 4 years. I was blind drunk at this time last St. Paddy's day. *sigh*

I normally don't get to excited about St. Patty's day, but the fact that a lot people are out getting smashed (literally right now) pisses me off because I am sitting in a cubicle in front of a computer like a god damn lab monkey.

My neighbors on the corner are Irish. As I was going to work at 10:30, they were partying it up with friends. I was pretty jealous.

I hate St. Patrick's Day. The level of d-baggery in my 'hood goes off the charts. Hey proles, stay in your own neighborhood to drink. Don't come to one of the 200 Irish Pub/Sportsbar combo shops that are within a half mile of my apartment. You can get the exact same experience at the Buffalo Wild Wings in Proleville and it will be cheaper.

Today would be a good day to be out and about boozing it up and celebrating whatever Irish blood you have. Me, I'm about 1/8th Irish but I'm cooped up in the office all day.

Oh yeah, and one more thing, I have a diligent Iowa work ethic - the only day it is acceptable to be really drunk before noon is on a Saturday when the Hawks are playing or on New Year's Day when the Hawks are playing if New Year's Day falls on a day other than Saturday.

Oh yeah, one last thing, I saw a fat gal walking around today wearing a green shirt with a tiger hawk logo that said "Kiss Me, I'm a Hawkeye." A nice shirt, but they really shouldn't make those in XXXL size, it could be detrimental to recruiting.

I got to party on Bourbon St for St Patty's day. Even got to see the parade through the French Quarter.

The area we were working in still has a lot to be done though. I can't wait to go back in a couple of years to see how it has changed, assuming it doesn't get wiped out again. Or were you meaning the other type of scenery?? |

I remember when we went to Key West in Feb. of '06...we had a layover in Dallas, so we flew from Miami to Dallas passing directly over N'awlins. It just looked like a giant mud pit from the air. |
