Shamrocks

In honor of Saint Patty's Day I am wearing a green shirt. Yes, that is all. But others seem to have more extravagant plans. While sitting on the porch with my housemate, a woman decked out in festive gear walked by on the phone, and we caught this snippet of her conversation:
"No one has any fucking corned beef."

That started us off on a tangent about how she should have done her Irish meal shopping earlier in the week:

The stores are probably also out of potatoes, Lucky Charms, and green food coloring.
Not to mention the banks would be out of gold coins, the liquor store out of Bailey's Irish Cream, and Irish Ale, the bars out of Irish Coffee, and the pet store is probably out of leprechauns.

Happy St. Patrick's Day. Next year do your shopping beforehand.
