I found this little didy on one of my friend’s Facebook pages. It’s not particularly relevant today, but man o man it would have been great for Valentine’s Day or especially St. Patrick’s Day! Who doesn’t appreciate a bunch of drunk Irishmen singing and perfectly harmonizing a Savage Garden love song? Love it!

The tradition is if you don’t wear green on St. Patrick’s Day you get pinched. It can be by anyone, or anything. However, I think that tradition usually stops after elementary school, unless you’re inebriated.

I thought it would be cute to have little business-sized cards with matching lil envelopes to slip into people’s pockets or on their desks or wherever to give them a paper pinch if they’re not wearing green. Or even if they are, to wish them a Happy St. Patty’s Day!

Is it me, or has Cinco de Mayo become a much bigger holiday than it used to be? I mean I don’t even remember recognizing it all in college – and believe me, if there was even the smallest excuse to drink, I’d use it. But I can’t remember celebrating it. Not until I was living in Chicago a few years ago in May did I even recognize it as a holiday and celebrated with some cheap margaritas. Last year was probably the most I’ve ever done, and that was going out with people to a popular margarita bar to celebrate and get cheap light up Corona necklaces. It seems as though this holiday is becoming the new St. Patrick’s Day. I’m not complaining really. Just wondering what color they’ll dye the Chicago River. Dirty yellow like a margarita? Gross.

Celebrate! With sombrero and sliced avocado? tableware!

EDIT: I was just informed that I am old. Of course we didn’t celebrate cinco de mayo in college! It was during exams! Stupid stupid.

Here was my logic for this post:

St. Patrick’s Day = leprechauns = pot of gold = rainbow = Skittles

Skittles = fruity candy = Starbursts (with a leprechaun in their commercial)

This always gets me in the holiday spirit :)

Yes, this is real. These people are serious.

I’ve been to Chicago on St. Patrick’s Day. The water looked nothing like this. Granted it was 1 in the afternoon, I still was hoping for at least a little green! Has anyone seen the river super green like this?

Aaaaand one more!

Anyone doing anything fun tonight? I wish I could say I was. I’ll be drinking green beer in my cube while I’m at work :(

No St. Patrick’s Day would be complete without the obligatory naughty and/or drunken Irish T-shirt.

I’ll be sporting my “Gettin’ Lucky in Kentucky” shirt in honor of my husband from Lexington. :)
