Easter Observations
A few items of note, brought about by an Easter weekend spent with The Fam:
I believe that there is a Federally-mandated scent that all church restrooms' hand soaps must contain. It appears to be unique to church bathrooms, as I have yet to smell an analog in any other public dispenser.
Handel apparently wrote "Messiah"'s bass line in the key of "Doug", as I was able to perform my annual belting-out this morning with aplomb.
My wife's birthday fell on Easter Sunday this year - it became apparent to me that this stinks almost as much as having your birthday fall on Christmas Day and certainly more so than having a birthday around Christmas.
It's a bit of a cliche at this point, but we as Christians expend far too much energy on Christmas and too little on the truly important holiday, Easter.
Easter snuck up on us. That said, trust me when I say you will come to expend MUCH more energy on it in the future…
