Feliz Lunes-y

5 things:

1.  Got through St. Patrick's day weekend here with only minor inconvenience.  Between Metro track work, the Rock & Roll marathon on Saturday, and the St. Pat's day parade yesterday, though, transportation was dicey....

2.  Snow is forecast for today, but there's no snow here.  There was snow falling in the dog park across town earlier.  So far, nowt here.

3.  The Pope is doing his best to charm the villagers in the Vatican.  Fine.  Let's see what comes out of his mouth when he speaks ex cathedra.

4.  The president of Argentina is a woman, and she gave the cardinal (now Pope) lots to think about!

5.  I got three free books from Solas Nua on Irish Book Day (March 17) this year:   Jesus and Billy Are Off to Barcelona by Dierdre Purcell,  Mrs. Whippy by Cecelia Ahern, and The Comedian by Joseph O'Connor.  I've read the first, and am halfway through the second (about a woman who LOVES ice cream!). Will finish the second and read the third tonight.
