If my parents had loved each other more, my last name would be Patrick, so I have a lot of conflicting feelings about St Patrick’s Day. This morning I had a meeting in a cafe, and I wore a green sweater and the waitress put green food coloring in my hair because apparently having pink hair gives people license to touch you, so when I got home, I changed into something not green, and then Brendan pinched me during a fire alarm, and also I’ve been hungover all day, and I think there’s still some glitter on my face, so, like, thx heritage?

Also we’re Lutheran (I say “we” as in like my family, the constructed version of me, the version my grandmother prefers), not Catholic, so I dodged a bullet there. Irish Lutherans still binge drink but for different reasons than Irish Catholics do, and probably if I were Irish Catholic I wouldn’t have considered green skittles vodka an appropriate holiday beverage.

Once I told my (very Irish, functioning alcoholic) uncle that my favorite drink was jack and coke, and he slapped me on the shoulder and told everyone how proud he was, so now the only thing I want to drink is coconut rum or something.

My gramma didn’t send me a chain email about St Patrick; should I be worried?

I think one of my better qualities is that every time I’m drunk I just want to tell everyone how much I love them.

Nikki just used her pink x-acto knife to open the pomegranate juice that we’re mixing with our bubblegum vodka.

  • Nikki: I feel like hip moms drink this.
  • Me: They do.
  • Nikki: Like, this is where women's rights has led us. Drinking bubblegum vodka...
  • Me: Out of espresso cups. While listening to One Direction.

Anyone who has had a troublesome relationship with alcohol knows the part that comes next: the classic “I’m never drinking again” line, which is a path paved with good intentions but is often more winded and rocky than straight and narrow. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve thought I learned my lesson. I don’t want to even think about all of the mornings that I crawled to the medicine cabinet for painkillers, stomach rolling and mind racing to catch up with the flood of memories of what I’d done the night before. Nearly everyone who drinks alcohol has had a night and subsequent morning like this. Some people can laugh it off and get on with their lives. I’ve always envied those people. You see, for me a hangover isn’t just a headache and maybe a bit of cringing at myself for how I acted. It’s an all encompassing, crippling feeling of complete and utter self-hatred, in which I make myself sick replaying in my mind every single thing I did or said.
