Good Morning, Drunkard
It’s St. Patrick’s Day! Actually, it’s not really St. Patrick’s Day. That was on Saturday. Or more than two weeks ago if you’re from Hoboken. But it’s St. Patrick’s Day (Observed)!
Being on a Monday poses some problems for the drinkers among the workforce. For example, do you leave work right at 5? Do you try to sneak out early? Do you try to squeeze in a liquid lunch? These are all very serious questions. And so, I will pose a serious question to you:
Place your more detailed plans in the comments below. And enjoy a green beer for me.

Aaron says:My place of employment is helping me celebrate the holiday by giving me a late shift on Tuesday… it’s wonderful!

Amy in StL says:I’m actually leaving work early to take the dog to the vet - then meeting friends for drinks at 5.

Chris says:Amy in StL: Me too… if by “the Dog” you mean “yourself” and by “the vet” you mean “the bar.”

Kelly says:I’m torn between bolting at 5 and attempting to catch up with my friends who’ve been drinking all day, or calling it a lost cause and going home.
This is kind of pathetic, particularly when you consider the antics that last year’s celebration involved.

Annie in MN says:I was drunk all day Saturday and part of Sunday. Today I’m just taking it easy.

Chris says:Eh, I’m Irish and all, but I’m kinda over this holiday.
Besides, Saint Patrick never did anything for me, right? So fuck him.

ExposedNYC says:2nd place Amateur night, but still a good time. I’m avoiding Irish pubs (too predictably jam-packed), but am toasting and pinching anyone not in a green hue of some sort, just because it’s fun.

Chris says:StuyGirl: I know, right? I was totally phoning it in yesterday, and this is what gets picked up.
