St. Patrick’s Day

This is not a photo of two young guys in matching, bright green t-shirts and matching peeing poses, their backs to me, feet wide apart, beer bottles in the back pockets of their jeans. It was 6 p.m., and my husband, son and I were walking to the pizza shop to pick up some dinner. We met up with them again at the pizza joint, where they were a bit sheepish and on best behaviour, despite their obvious inebriation.

(with apologies to unphotographable)

    Who needs a photo after reading that description. Was the pee green?

    BTW, my email is on the fritz tonight just in case you a) didn’t get my messages or b) you’ve tried to send me something.

    That would have been an entertaining photo!

    I love it when drunk boys pretend to be sober. :)

    Fabulous description.

    There was an abundance of youthful exuberance and green clothing on the streets when I drove the kids to piano lessons last night. Such is life in a university town, I guess.
