“Tipsy O’Malley” – Our Drunken Irish Ghost

We have a family ghost. His name is Tipsy O’Malley. He’s Irish and, living up to the stereotype, he’s always drunk. We discovered him as we started experiencing an unrealistically high number of “spilled liquids” in our house. He’s the guy who knocks over glasses of wine or spills coffee on your keyboard or bumps glasses of milk off the table. He also seems to be attracted to anyone who is wearing white and tries to make his mark on those types of clothes.

He seems to be really good friends with my wife and follows her around alot. He has been known to follow me to work sometimes (I once lost a keyboard because of him and a huge Starbucks coffee as well). I remember him visiting us many many years ago (he was probably a guest then and seeing if he wanted to stay) when he managed to knock a glass of red wine out of my wife’s hand and all over a white sofa.

We know he is here to stay. I do think he has relatives that are out and about. If you know of any, let me know.
