Easter is the day that Jesus supposedly resurrected after his crucifixion.  Hope that explains it.


ahhh... learn something new everyday.  Didn't know about being born in the summer (?) Thanks!

Way to go, Chris.  Nice to get paid, isn't it.  Wink

Well, I haven't been paid yet, but I will be soon! Embarrassed
 
The best thing about it so far is that I go to work, go home, and I don't have any homework or projects to worry about.
 
I miss Blacksburg and VT though...Cry

Thank you!! Hug
 
I was woken up by my honey with coffee in bed (ok, not IN the bed, but you know what I mean), and he told me to check under my pillow, and when I did, there were 2 Sleepytime Gorilla Museum albums I was having difficulty getting hold of. 
 
So I'm a happy little thing today.
 
(useless fact of the day:  It's also Kate Bush's birthday.  So I've been playing a little Kate today.  But right now, it's Midlake's last album....Tongue)
