Five on Friday

Luck of the Irish

1. Are you Irish?
I am today. Isn't everyone?

2. Are you by any chance wearing green today?
Still in my pjs, but they have little green snowmen all over them (fortunately).

3. What kinds of special things do you do to celebrate St. Patrick's Day?
We'll have corned beef and potatoes for dinner, and I have an appointment for Dinner by Design this morning to try it out. Big thrills, eh?

4. Do you believe in luck? How about fate?
Do I believe in luck? Luck is random chance, so yes, I do. Fate, however, sounds an awful lot like predestination, a cornerstone of Presbyterianism. Guess I believe it that, too.

5. What would you do if you found a pot of gold?
Having just reread The Goblet of Fire, the first thing I'd do is make sure it's not leprechaun gold (which disappears). Then I'd put it in the bank and try to figure out which charity gets it.
