We celebrated St. Patti's day this year with a Corned beef dinner, complete with green mashed potatoes. AFter dinner we settled the kids with the sitter and went to one of our favorite pubs to see the Whooligans. OMG!! It's usually crowded there on a Whooligans night, but not anything at all like this. Thankfully knowing the band we didn't wait as long, nor did we have to pay the cover. Whew. We even managed to find a place by the band to stuff our jackets as it was 50-something outside and 80 something inside!!! About 2 hours in another regular to this establishment tries to dance... mind you there's NO room.. now picture a 5'7 or so well blessed in the chest 20-something year old being thrown about swing style by a not quite 4-5" 70-80 yr old troll... that was our regular trying to dance. I've danced with him before, he's all paws and no manners..Tim got the troll all riled up by asking him to settle down I thought there was going to be a fight, thankfully the bouncer finally came in and took him out. I was relieved as I pictured him throwing his partner into the band, or into someone in front of the band. We left before the bar closed, in fact we were home about the time the band was to be finishing up.. which for us, made it an early night.. but I'm glad. While it was fun, it was also INSANE.. I'm not sure we'll go next year or do something else... we'll have to wait and see. this evening we're going to a party at a friend's house, THAT will be tons of fun!!!
OK.. I'm off to shower, one major negative of last night was the patio doors were open for circulation which allowed the smoke to come inside and I reek of cigarette smoke.
