st patty's day

so the truth of st. patty's day is actually a story of the near extermination of pagan religions and culture in ireland. so it's a bit ironic that i love it but i do and i'm not sure i can even say anything about why that makes a damned bit of sense. we had our giant boiled dinner and i'm drinking bass (and this is probably gonna be a few minutes after 12 cuz carl just came and started talking to me and simply wouldn't stop). a friend from college sent a video for patty's that i'd like to share with you but i haven't asked him yet so instead i'll share this



today has run the proverbial rollercoaster. emotionally that is. although - kind of boring rollercoaster. up and down but not in the extreme.

my son is verging on being able to tell a narrative. beginning / middle / end with adjectives and adverbs. i can hear him begin to understand that things have meanings. understand, i mean he is beginning to - i'm not some nutcase that thinks he's gonna write the american novel by 5. there's no way that'll happen until he's like 10 / no later than 12 anyway. ;)

alright - time ticks - no buffy quote tonight. tonight i'll let shane do the talking for me. seriously you GOT to watch this. only 4 more blessed days whoooo hooooo
