Writer's Block: Kiss me, I’m Irish!

I'm not. My heritage is Swedish, English, Scots and German. I think that it's rather presumptuous to declare something like "Every body's Irish on Saint Patrick's Day!" -- Sorry, not Irish, not Catholic, not celebrating.

Thank you! I'm not the only one! (I'm mostly Polish and Scottish myself.) Although my husband and, therefore, my kids are Irish. Still, we don't usually do anything for St. Patrick's Day.

LOL!!! That was the polite answer, BTW. I suspect my objection to the whole St. Patrick's' hullabaloo is the result of having worked briefly at a company owned by a couple who were AGGRESSIVELY Irish and regularly bad-mouthed other employees within my hearing -- made me wonder what they said about ME when I wasn't around.... That, and the ongoing nuisance of trying to dine out for my husband's birthday and dealing with the mean green crowds.
