I try to compromise by wearing something green with my orange, but because of the embarrasment already noted, my orange tends to get a little smaller every year.
I wore green Friday, but was actually considering wearing a bit of orange because I'm just a confusion! I am Catholic, lived in Ireland but my ancestry is VERY Protestant (my maternal grandmother brought in the Catholic - everyone else was Protestant) and of English and Scottish ancestry (with Scandanavian and Eastern European for good measure!).
