OK. Wore my SWK Irish National out yesterday to my parent's house.

My mom got a big kick out of it and took a picture of me in it.

My brother and his buddy were sitting out front when i got there. As i'm wakling up the front steps, his buddy says "dude, why are you wearing a kilt?" to which i reply "because i want to."

i stay for a while, and leave to go to the store. as i'm pulling up, a 40-ish African American lady is walking in. I walk in behind her and she does a double-take, glancing over her shoulder. i almost bust out laughing and have to fake getting a funny text message on my phone as i walk quickly down an aisle. we end up at the same place and she asks if i'm wearing a kilt. she asks if i'm Irish, i tell her i'm Irish and Scottish. She basiclly that it's cool to which i reply "so do I." she thinks it's great that i'm dressed like that, honoring my heritage.


only bad thing about yesterday: it was HOT and HUMID. not the best day to rock the kilt.
