Well?

I myself got a few books, but enjoyed a really good traditional Polish Easter breakfast. I went to the Easter Vigil last night, so didn't have to get up too early today....

I didn't get a chance to go to church. I asked my dad and he said he didn't want to go, and I asked my mom but she said it was too late.

Didn't really do anything. I went to a gig last night (which was great fun), and my parents are visiting me today/tomorrow on their way home from my grandparents. Other than that, bugger all. The majority of my friends have gone home for Easter (as most of them are still at uni). :(

Am I the only one who, on seeing this thread's title once, misread it as 'How do you spell Easter?' but then, after realising my mistake on view two, made the same mistake on views three and four?
I really am going senile...

Oh, and I spent it round at my friend's house in the morning and on NSG and Dungeon Keeper I the rest of the day.
Go figure.

Bah, I was supposed to go feasting tonight...my parents were hosting. But my father had to go in for a liver biopsy today, and the venue got switched to a town in Northern Alberta, and I can't bloody bring myself to drive four hours to get there. So no moose roast for me, it's Easter chocolates and NS.

Well I mean, think about it...four hours driving there, four hours back, at least four hours AT the feast...12 hours without NS? Are you insane?*

I'm avoiding taking the kids to my in-laws, even though we're terribly bored here. I just don't want to expose my children to the cultural catholicism that seems to be most rampant around this time (and la semana santa). My in-laws don't do it often, but I like to pretend they don't exist when they start frothing at the mouth in their pseudo-religious fashion.

As it should be. The last thing anyone needs is to go spoiling the Easter atmos by going on at length about some dead guy.

The 'ahoy' got me thinking though...what if I raised my children to believe in the flying spaghetti monster? I could send them to school dressed as pirates, and we could celebrate all sorts of weird holidays in our own fashion...and section 2b of the Charter would protect this insanity the same way it protects all other religious insanities...religious trolling doesn't get you modsmacked in the real world.

They're going to need therapy later on ANYWAY...*considers, while chewing on the head of a chocolate bunny*

...and speaking of chocolate bunnies, I a-'member yeeeeeeears ago when some group or 'nother tried using chocolate bunnies to determine whether kiddies had homosexual tendencies... though I can't recall if eating the bunny ears-first or rump-first was supposed to be the tip-off.

I always started with the eyes, you dig...

That means you're a sadomasochist with slight homosexual tendencies.
Or was that if you eat the nose first?

i slept until noon. took breakfast outside in the sun only wearing my underpants. then i had to go to a quiz organised by a supporters-club for a belgian football team. later there was a 'concert' wich was awfully bad, but also quite fun at the same time. after that i got drunk with some friends and stayed untill 5 AM. there happened some things with an inflatable sex-doll, and i cycled home with 20 balloons tied to my bike. one of the best easters ever.
