43. Funny story

Mar 2018

I did a masters in Irish Studies in the late 90s. The entire time, I told everyone I was not the least bit Irish (and they could not fathom why I would want to go through the program not being Irish). Last year, my family was discussing ancestry and my sister mentioned that we were a little of this and that and...Irish. So I had lied! I told everyone at the Catholic University of American, the only American university sanctioned by the Vatican, that I was not the least bit Irish. I may be going to hell.
