Happy St. Patrick's Day to all of you! May you wear your finest green feminine attire and have a safe good time.
Without a lot of fanfare, Liz and I are going to join several of our transgender friends we haven't seen forever for dinner. For the occasion I have picked out a green sweater I have had for some time.
To my knowledge I am not Irish but I certainly will take advantage of any of the luck which happens to come my way!
Even though I do have some Irish antecedents I tend not to celebrate St Patrick's day, I am English, part of the Nation that conquered, oppressed, and murdered the Irish over centuries. To celebrate St Paddy being English just feels a bit inappropriate. (although I may raise a quiet pint of Guinness to the Higgins at the Pub tonight)
