I didn't wear green today. I did, however, leave work at noon and spent the afternoon in a pub drinking Guinness and watching step dancers. It's now about 6:00 pm and I wouldn't want to try to get a seat in a pub in Toronto.

But it's a weirdly Toronto phenomenon. I don't remember ever celebrating the day when I didn't live in Toronto. Is it part of Toronto's multiculturalism or just an excuse to skip work and drink a bit too much on a date which falls during or is close to March break and/or Easter?

I don't know, but your afternoon sounds much more pleasant than mine was. :)

That sentence makes me hurt now. I obviously didn't kiss the Blarney Stone when I was in Ireland.

Just so long as you didn't kiss a stone that causes bad hangovers on March 18. :)

That's why I only drink Guinness on St. Paddy's -- it goes down slowly and has a relatively low alcohol content.

I actually got to work earlier today than yesterday!

Careful, you might get something added into your employee manual. :)
