royalty: out - england, in - norway
Just remember, this is me. Don't leave me out in the sun too long and keep my bum dry. My mom wears fabulous hats, and my dad is a total schnozalicious hottie.
OK, so like nobody trip over your own shoes offering to take me out or anything for this holiday. I'll remember this come St. Paddy's day or the next Cinco de Mayo. Screw all you Norwegian haters.
CICADA REPORT: heard my first cicada today. Molted skins and nyphs in various stages of undress are all over the trees and bushes on campus. Some of them have stunted wings, some of them are white from just getting out of their skins. Sparrows, robins, and even squirrels are gorging themselves. Apparently they do not taste bad at all.

I am changing my name to Haakon. It just looks cool and it's fun to say.

So what you're saying is that next St. Paddy's Day will be a lot like this year's St. Paddy's Day?

I assume that you are familiar with this blog out of Minnesota?
("Norwegians aren't real big on celebrations, but on the other hand, we reserve the right to get blotto whenever we feel the need (which some of us feel more than others ó I blame Bush)." HA!
