In Which I Do Not Partake In Any Festivities

Are you dying to hear about St. Patrick’s Day in Chicago, where they dye the river green and everyone goes completely bonkers?

Well, you are in for a disappointment, because I am pretty un-festive when it comes to March 17.  I did go outside to walk to my kettlebells class—at 8 AM—and saw lots of folks in green t-shirts lining up at the bars.  Turns out the North Side is a great place to go to drink yourself silly in the early morning hours.

Here are a few pictures from my day that might help clarify just how apathetic I am about this holiday:
I took the trash out and found this guy on our Dumpster.  It's actually a pretty impressive piece of art.  I enjoyed it.  I guess this doesn't really say anything about St. Patrick's Day, but I took out the trash while I was on my way to buy groceries, which is to say that I was out doing normal things rather than being celebratory and fun.




Dinner for one.  Irish nachos: that's a thing, right?
