I’m celebrating Easter by getting a lift into work, because there are no buses running today. Lame.

I celebrated by nursing a hangover, and then walking around London for a good two or three hours.

Oh, and it snowed, so it was a very special day.

I didn't get an egg. Instead, my wife got me a Jupiter 567 565 saxophone.
She doesn't know the difference between a student saxaphone and the sort of saxaphones I buy, God bless her (they're expensive - I only have two including this one - I don't need any more than that).
I have to admit, it makes a beautiful sound, especially for a student sax. She has my gratitude. That was a gift far better than any chocolate, even though I don't celebrate Easter.
Though I did get her a laptop. She's been after one of those.

Hopefully from her I will soon receive a gift even greater than an alto saxophone...

...though knowing her I doubt it.

Easter was alright...it also snowed over here, but snow doesn't settle at all.

Also chocolate eggs are tasty.

The irony of Easter is that most people seem to think it's the exact time on which he rose, but Easter is a move-able fest, meaning that it is on a different three-day period every year. So while Easter is the time people remember/celebrate the resurrection of Christ, it's not necessarily the three-day period in which died and subsequently was resurrected.

What most people are ignorant cunts about, that Easter has moved from being a Christian holiday, to merely a tradition, much like Christmas.

So all stop your bitching and be happy.

Alrighty! A fellow Alto Sax player.

I had a pretty good Easter, went to my grandparents and saw some of my extended family. However, that night was the end of my Spring Break and had a 3 hour drive to get back to school. Which incidentally, I slept through my only class today, so I guess I had one extra day off. lol

What you're forgetting is that the date for Easter is based on Passover, which is based on the Lunar calendar rather than the Solar/Gregorian calendar in use today. Admittedly, Easter is no longer consistent with the Lunar calendar either but it's still got some relationship.

I spent Easter Friday drunk, Saturday in a car, Sunday in a plane and then having Easter Dinner at a table where Jews outnumbered Christians. I figure that the Christians would have nothing to celebrate if it weren't for us Jews so that's okay.

Also I gave my Christian friend Joey an Easter present of a tacky Jesus keychain that's been to all the holy sites in Israel.

Same here. More like Merry Easter. Considering it hadn't snowed at all the rest of this year in our area, or the second half of last year, it was rather peculiar. As usual, I blame global warming :P

Also it was my sister's 18th b-day on that same day, which made it rather interesting.

I had to play at a church service, which wasn't bad at all considering I got paid for it.

Later that day I had an early birthday with a few family members. We had bread pudding instead of cake, which was great, because I'd take bread pudding over cake any day. My gifts were some clothes and money.

Hmm, lessee... I've spent the day at my grandad's where we had a big lunch.
Wha'd I get, you ask? Cash, stored for safekeeping right away.
