I saw you! :o
We have this big parade here that has a large Knights of Columbus sponsored afterparty, everybody goes there and gets hammered while listening to music and stuff. Underage public drinking is pretty widespread there and pretty much everyone I know goes there and gets drunk. Well, I usually don't go and I didn't go yesterday...instead I stayed home and watched lacrosse and played video games. Fun stuff. My friend got pretty drunk though and saw my mom there (who was sober) so that was kind of funny. My mom was just like "how old are you?" (he's 18.)
hmm, I felt like a loser but oh well.
none of my friends are intown :(
1 dude is working @ NASA in houston, 1 is w/fam in AZ, 4 ppl are just back home for the break, 1 is in the reserves, and the chick I'm in to went home too :(. lame.
SO, lastnight I played Mall Madness

I celebrated by going to work, playing a mandolin solo on break (they were kinda just sitting there so I picked one up and started playing, then Miro (an assistant manager) kicked my ass by playing Smoke on the Water), and then ending my night by falling down the Howlin' Tornado (google for pictures of it, it's huge++).
I find St. Patrick's Day offensive as it is celebrated in the US. As the majority of my family is Irish and St. Patrick's Day is one of the holiest days in Ireland, where they celebrate by going to Mass.

Everything in America's huge and filled with alcohol. Easter, you hide some eggs and drink 'til the kids find them. Christmas you spike milk (egg nog, shut it.) with rum, and drink it. Thanks giving, you get in a fight with your brother in law and key his car. Just get used to being offended in America, and you'll live your life nice and care free.

That's because you're not Irish, you're just of Irish decent.
I was under the assumption that theres no difference. I'm an Irish-American.
No. There's a difference. An Irish person is someone who has close family (ie: not 23478th cousins or whatever) or was born and lived in Ireland for a while. Someone of Irish decent is someone whose great great grandparents moved to America.
I saw my best friend piss his pants becuase he was black out drunk. I got pictures. Will upload later. Damn that was a good night. Pussy light weight couldnt hold his shit.
