You know, every year I am amazed by the unexpected wonderfulness of March 18th.
And this year has been no exception. Once again I awake to find that the birds are singing, the sun is shinning, the coffee is brewing, and I feel pretty dang good. Primarily because I didn't drink myself into a "Lephrachanic Stupor" on March 17th.
It is amazing what NOT abusing your body can do for creating a positive outlook on life. Sadly, for many of you, this is not the case. For many of you reading this blog right now, you have a head that feels like a whirlpool filled with pancake batter and a tongue that tastes like it's grown hair. I'm sorry to hear that. I know it must stink.
And there is NOTHING worse than waking up on March 18th, thinking you were gonna "sleep it off" the following Saturday, only to find out that you've miscalculated and it's actually FRIDAY! Now, "Mr. Fun" has to roll his fat rear out of bed, try to scrub the green paint off his stomach, put on a suit and give a talk on new zoning laws and how it will affect the property taxes in Tulsa.
Let's face it - your life is stinking right now. No wonder you're wasting time reading stupid blogs.
The good news is, you're not alone. There are many in the exact same position as you. Some of them in the same room as you right now, trying to act like they're understanding your rambling speech about the zoning laws in Tulsa.
Be kind. It could be YOU someday.
What am I talkin' about? It IS you!
Right NOW!
I believe, one of the best ways to recover from this horrible, sick feeling is to read the Bible. Try reading about other famous drunks of scripture, notice how it worked out for them, and then determine if seeing your buddy Ralph dancing on the table last night in nothing but sweat socks and a watch, was as funny as it seemed at the time.
For example, Noah got drunk and had relations with his daughters. Samson got drunk and lost all his hair and super-human strength. YOU got drunk slept with who knows what, and will probably lose your bloomin' job!
Finally, study the famous Lephrechans of the Bible.
There aren't a LOT of those...unless you count Zacheus...which I am. I don't think he was green, but he WAS short and lived in a tree. And THAT'S something we can ALL learn from. At least, I think we can.
Happy March 18th everybody!
