There won't be any green beer or corned beef and cabbage for me today as I not only have to work, but I also have class until 10 pm. This got me thinking about the last time I truly celebrated the quarter of me that is Irish and I could not remember. So, I turned to my computer to see if I had any photos and luckily found a folder entitled "St. Patrick's Day 2007." Has it really been that long?
In March 2007 Drew and I were living in our townhouse and had just started to create some norms in our newlywed life. It's safe to say that we had friends over almost every weekend and if there was ever a reason to throw a party we found a way to make it happen. Our townhouse was large and roomy and provided plenty of space to have everyone over. More importantly, there were plenty of spaces for people to sleep if they couldn't drive themselves home.
So, since I'll be learning about organizational behavior tonight and not sipping on a Guinness I'll just have to relive some of March 2007.
:::This is the part where I wiggle my fingers and make funny noises to simulate a flashback (ie: Wayne's World):::
Funny story about Drew's hat - he just had to have that style hat but couldn't find one in green. So, we bought a white one and tried to dye it in the kitchen sink over night. I still don't know what we did wrong, but it obviously didn't work and his white hat turned light gray. After the party I don't think he ever wore that hat again.
Ryan found the polka-dot ribbon from someone else and decided to wear it around his head for the rest of the night.
My cousin Don keepin' it classy in his Hamm's vest.
Ali and Joel who stopped by after watching her brother's state basketball game (they won!).

Apparently most of my photos from the night either cut off people's heads or were up close and on an angle. I guess that could be interpreted as a good time.
Done and done.
Thanks for taking a walk back in time with me. If you're celebrating - be safe and enjoy! I'll join you next year when St. Patrick's Day falls on a Saturday (2012 is a leap year)!
...and in case you didn't get my Wayne's World reference, this is for you:
