I Know What is What, but I Don't Know What is What

Well it's Friday, which is quite nice of course, but I am still stuck here for a bunch more hours. After that though it's an action packed long weekend. I've discussed most of my plans already so I wont reiterate. I had thought to take the girlfriend into D.C. on Sunday to see the Cherry Blossoms, but as I understand it they've all been murdered by freezing weather. Also it's supposed to be cold again and apparently Sunday is Easter which could make things tricky.

I doubt I've mentioned it before but I'm not a very devout person. I used to go to church when my parents made me, and I went through confirmation with our Methodist Church at the time. I don't remember much about that process except they made us visit other churches to see how other religions worshiped. There was one we went to where the congregation had to stand up or kneel practically the whole time. I was glad my parents were simple Methodists to be sure. I stayed quasi "churchy" for awhile, played in the church's handbell choir. That at least made me show up to a church service once a month, though I often sat back behind the organ and only came out when it was time to play. Then college rolled around I pretty much gave up on organized religion entirely.

It's not that I don't believe in God, tho I might not. I think he might exist, and it would be somewhat comforting to know that he did. Or at least know if there is a happy happy fun fun afterlife to look forward to. But I've never really been gripped with an intense enough belief in God to be the faithful religious follower. So I don't go to Church anymore. Sometimes I might go for Christmas Eve or something, but I don't think I have the past two years, and I definitely don't tithe. So I don't much plan on showing up for Easter service, and my petty self will probably get annoyed for stuff closing early or people being out at restaurants I want to eat at just for the hell of it.

I know Becky would love it if I made her an Easter Basket, but I'm not sure I have the time or initiative. I do however need to get myself a couple more Cadbury Eggs before this years Easter Bunny dies.
