Happy St. Gertude's Day
Other saints share March 17 and perhaps it's unfair that St. Paddy gets all the glory. I nominate St. Gertie (Nivelle, Brabant) as an alternative:

A virgin of noble birth. Because she despised the world, and during her whole life practised all kinds of good works, she deserved to have Christ for her spouse in heaven.

St. Gertie's day is celebrated by staying out of pubs, harrumphing at revellers, picking up litter, and going to bed alone.
