This past weekend I and the entire city of Chicago celebrated St. Patrick's day in a belligerent and obscenely green sort of way. Was a good time had by all? Maybe. Was a good time had by me? Yes. Was a good time had by the people with me? Possibly, but it is questionable, which is exactly why I need to address the things I might do differently if I was given the option of a weekend re-do:
1. I would have gotten up earlier. Life is too short to waste, yet I insitsted on wasting away some of this festively fun Irish holiday because I was lazy. Next year I vow to start as early as the events I am invited to. No 'kegs and eggs' will be too early.
2. I (probably) would not have let a leprechaun get me drunk (but there is a good chance I would let this happen again....too fanciful an event to pass up).
3. I would not have made a scene at the jukebox....I blame my friend whose birthday we were not celebrating. He was one track on hearing Miley Cyrus' butterfly song and being the good friend that I am, I wanted to make sure he heard it as many times as he wanted. Even if this meant being a complete and ridiculous mess and pointless arguments for playing the song with other people's money without their consent.
