  • St. Patrick's Day

    When did St. Patty's day become another Halloween? And why do women over 50 assume they can show up to work in a costume. I just don't know what else to call a green spidery cape. :huh: I wish I could take a picture without her noticing.

      Oh, I'm dying to see that. Cell phone camera?

      I'm wearing a green sweater for my kids. No capes here.

        I think for most people it's an excuse to be silly. Who knows.

        I totally forgot it was St. Patty's Day. Bad Irish person -- BAD BAD BAD!!!

        Last March 17th I spent the evening with Suzy Sunshine and her husband!

          I don't know if she's Irish, I have no idea who she is. Upon closer inspection the cape turned out to be a poncho, not that it's a big improvement. This is the whole outfit - green spidery poncho on top of a black turtleneck, hunter green pleated skirt (above the knee), black tights and black knee-high boots. All on a woman over 50. And it's nowhere near Halloween. Unless there are St. Patty costume parties and she won't get a chance to stop by at home and change after work. :huh:

          The first time I saw her in the ladies room I was actually stopped in my tracks and I think my lower jaw literally dropped.

              I totally forgot-- AND forgot to remind the kids before they went to school. I hope they didn't get pinched! I remembered when I saw the monitor in the drop off area wearing big glittery cardboard green sunglasses. :huh:

                Our psychiatrist has been wearing green shamrock sunglasses all day. They look like something Elton John would have worn in his heyday.

                  I have a green Tinkerbell hoodie I've been wearing all day just so my kids won't pinch the living daylights out of me!!

                    I took a green barrette from my girls' hair pretty box and stuck that in my hair. Sooo not festive. And I don't even wear a costume for Halloween.

                      Would the outfit be acceptable on someone under 50?

                        Well, may be if she was in her early 20s at least the skirt would have been excusable.

                          Excusable, maybe. If you're incredibly forgiving. But it would never be really acceptable...
