Happy Easter

// April 14th, 2006 // Neighbourhoods

Being brought up Catholic, I know that this is one of those weekends where all the lapsed and lazy Catholics make a beeline for the church because it’s required that they attend mass at Christmas and Easter. It’s a stipulation to remain Catholic, although I don’t know why they bother with the perfunctory 2-times-a-year sessions when they’re not interested the rest of the time.

It’s also now Passover and I know even less about Passover other than the fact that it’s the jewish equivalent to Easter, and it doesn’t always happen at the same time.

This year I don’t give a shit about Easter, passover, whatever. I’m not cooking up a big Easter dinner for the family because I just don’t feel like it. I’m taking this weekend to have a nice, relaxing long weekend and just do whatever the hell I feel like doing.

I had hoped that what I’d feel like doing was sleeping in, but this morning I was up at 8:30 after going to bed at 2:00. That didn’t quite make sleep-in status for me. Perhaps tomorrow.
