Mar. 17th, 2009 05:14 pmToday I get to wear green without feeling lame because! I am a full one-fourth Irish. (Well. Technically I am one fourth Scotch-Irish- which, how the heck am I supposed to divvy that up? No one ever says "we're scottish, irish and italian," on my mom's say, they say "We're Italian and Scotch-Irish." So At least a part of 1/4th of my heritage is Irish.) I'm just delighted that I'm not at home because it means I don't have to suffer through a dinner of corned beef and cabbage, of which I only eat cooked carrots.
The no-cursing for Lent thing has been hard, but it had the unexpected side effect of many me feel weird when other people curse. Or reading curses. Like, "well, that's unnecessary!" This is coming from someone who has cursed a streak as blue as any sailor's, and suddenly I am wincing like no other. I don't get it and I don't like it! I do, however, like that I am cursing far less.
I have a big test tomorrow with over... I don't know, I'd say well over a hundred vocabulary words and what am I doing? Messing around on LJ and watching Gilmore Girls. My priorities are clearly in line.

I have no idea how Irish I am, but it's pretty extensive. I think I am 1/4th Polish. I am absolutely no Scottish, though.

1/4th Polish? That's so cool! On whose side?
(Love. That. Icon.)
