Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

Well after the deaths of those three Zurg followed by their leaving I haven't been feeling too cheerful. Also, the leaving behind of poor ol' BoBo and the worry that has some with that hasn't helped either so I decided that I needed a little something to lift my mood you see.

I then remembered how confused I have been about this upcoming holiday. All I knew about it was that you had to wear green or else you'll get pinched, people use it as an excuse to get intoxicated and that the whole thing is from Ireland Which I found out is a country not an item. (I can be stupid at times. sweatdrop )

So I brought lots of maps of Gaia dusted off my fly vehicle(re-named it that in memory of 02) and flew off to the, ahem, this holiday's country of origin.

Strangely enough, there were people who were a bit put off off by the fact I was an alien. But when I had finally convinced someone, who was also willing to explain to me about St. Patrick's day, that I wasn't going to do anything involving probing or abducting I found out there was more to the day than booze, pinching and the colour green. (Speaking of colour, found a place that spells it with a U.. apparently they do in places called England, Wales and Scotland too. But I'll visit those later on when I have the time)

I mean, did you know they have FIVE DAY festival in Dublin to celebrate it?

But anyways. I'm back to these parts now.
