Four Leaf Clovers to You
Apparently, the Chicago River gets dyed green in annual celebration of St. Patrick's day, which is tomorrow, March 17th.

Since green is probably my favorite color, I can't help but commend them, St. Patrick's Day or not. Meanwhile, here's wishing you the luck of four-leaf clovers, with or without finding any. We all know that true luck comes from within, but just to hedge my bets, I have a hot date with a leprechaun tomorrow afternoon. He's a saucy little sprite, is he. And while I'm not Irish, I am half Scottish, although some Brits would probably tell me that that's way off. I have, on occasion, been told that I look "Black Irish," which I love because it's a striking look with very dark hair and very light skin, a combination I do have but since I went to an international school, I know what the "real thing" is and it's utterly captivating. There is a short road passage near me that looks enchanted at twilight where I know more leprechauns will be dallying tomorrow so I'll have to pass by there.

Happy St. P's day.
And yes, it is a striking look.
Much better than the real thing.
