If it's green, you're all set!

sorry

Just a couple hours south of you Sail and we're actually above freezing!

But I'm not wearing green. I don't think I have anything green that is suitable for barely above freezing temps either. (It's 34 degrees here.)

So nobody answered Aimee's question about who crowned her Empress?

I've forgotten, so I'm not entirely sure, but wasn't it me?

Sorry to hear about Patches, CaBil, but I'm glad you got to give her a good life.

The only green I own is on, but not visible to the casual observer, ifyouknowwhatImean. Kind of looking forward to tonight, in a sickly fascinated way. Glad I have a box seat to retreat to if need be.

We have a 9am huddle every work day. Today someone recommended that everyone find me at some point during the day and give me a good pinch. But wait... that's not all. I'm also being auctioned off to the highest bidder later today.

Lemme explain the second bit. We're doing a basketball servitude pool at work. We all had to draw names of teams out of a box and each week the winners have to serve the losers. (One week we'll do a breakfast, one week will be a lunch, etc.) So, with this game, you actually *want* to have a losing team. Which I don't... yet.

I picked Alabama and yesterday they won their game against Marquette. Cheryl pulled Marquette but she's not going to be here next week - sooooo she announced to everyone in the huddle that she's going to auction me off later today.

I may need either bail money or an alibi before the day is over.

What are you doing tonight that has box seats, Juliana?

Have any of the Chicago-istas been down to see the green river?

she's going to auction me off later today.

How rude. Tell her how horribly insulted you are and demand that she split the proceeds 60-40 in your favor.

vw, I think the Bursar's office is out celebrating already.

I have a green fleece on, but it was an accident. I'd forgotten it was St. Pat's.

It's always some flavor of green - I can't even tell the difference this year. I think it was more noticable last year.

Same thing we do every night, Pinky....

No, wait. Just living in North Beach, with the eleventy-billion yuppies and frat boys that swarm in every weekend. Given that there are two Irish bars less than 3 blocks from me, we're expecting a bit of overflow in addition to the usual Stupid Drunk Tricks. So, a few of us are going to make the rounds early and then retreat up to my place to watch and snark. Bets are being taken on when the neighborhood gets shut down by the cops.

Yes, your appartment is the perfect box seat for such viewing.

K-Bug is supposed to have a softball game this afternoon, a make-up for the rained out game that she would have missed during our vacation.

Meanwhile, my mom is planning a traditional St. Pat's dinner. She keeps pushing herself too much. I don't know how to get her to chill. They are now thinking she might have blood clots in her lungs. (!!!!!!!!) She is going in for more detailed testing next week. Blarg.
