I didn't go to the parade

Again, I have skipped both of Chicago's significant St. Patrick's Day Parades, namely the one put on by the South Side Irish. I had a long day and night Saturday and didn't feel like dodging traffic and people to see a parade I've probably seen 15 times before. My cousin invited me to meet some friends of his at a local bar but I fell asleep. By the time I woke up and got my bearings, it was too late to make a go of it.
