Irish Shmirish

D doesn't like anyone telling her what to wear, even if he is an anointed one. This morning I told her that she should wear green because it was St Patrick's Day and she didn't want to get pinched. (And because she's part Irish, right down to her great great grandfather who drove a beer truck for a living and drank most of it along the way!) Her response, "But I don't like green." (And btw, yet another holiday not discussed at school. Who knew the Catholics created so many damn holidays!) Then she looked very disgruntled and said, "I don't like this St. Patrick. I want to wear my fish shirt."
