HAPPY ST. PADDY\u2019S DAY 2026<\/h1>\n

I\u2019m always all in on St. Patrick\u2019s Day. Mr. X recently asked me why that is, (after seeing me celebrate it for a gazillion years,) and I replied because it\u2019s just such a fun, easy and colorful holiday.<\/p>\n

\"What<\/a>

What I wish us all today!<\/p><\/div>\n

But I can\u2019t do much for it today<\/em>, for several reasons, chief among them being that it\u2019s also the first day of\u2026March Madness!!! For you nescients out there, that\u2019s the college basketball championship tournament, which takes place over the next three weeks. I try my best to watch every second of the incredible action. (No worries\u2014I\u2019ll report on it all at the end.)<\/p>\n

On top of that, today is two days after the Oscars, so I\u2019m still working on my review of all that<\/em> madness. (I hope to publish it tomorrow.) I\u2019m also writing theatre reviews and articles about the various Oscars Gifting Suites. Let me tell you, March is a crazy month!<\/p>\n

So, I\u2019m making today\u2019s celebration of St. Paddy\u2019s Day short and sweet. The most important thing to remember about the occasion is that if you do not wear at least a wee bit of green, people who are doing the day right have carte blanche to pinch you!!! Mark my words. Even if you\u2019re just sitting in the house with one other person! I\u2019m<\/em> always safe because I polish my nails in varying shades of emerald for the special day, even if it\u2019s just Mr. X and me sitting in front of the TV.<\/p>\n

\"0acc13e5-38ac-1d67-f522-15376f5fcd5a\"<\/a>And if you\u2019re craving my usual<\/em> March 17th articles, complete with sweet and interesting Irish blessings and pix of all my green manis though the years, just go to one of the two \u201cSearch\u201d boxes on the right of the site, and enter the holiday\u2019s various titles there. Or go to the \u201cDate\u201d archives, also on the right side, and look at every \u201cMarch\u201d throughout the years, and you\u2019ll find them there.<\/p>\n

Happy St. Paddy\u2019s Day! Have a wee good one. And let your leprechaun flag fly!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
