the wanderings in my head

Ladies of the Irish persuasion are unique in their character. They are a combination of a little girl, mother, hooker, and nun. They can go from Bambi to Banshee in 3.7 seconds. They can bat their eyes, or blacken yours. They can love you with a passion and make you feel like a king. They can be frail and strong at the same time. Depending on their mood, they'll chastise you for drinking... or match you pint for pint. The ladies keep Irish men from killin' themselves and each other. But, they're like the grace of God... uncomprehendable but indespensible.
