Well, my cold is pretty much no more. So, chalk one up for me! Today was Easter, so we went to Easter mass. It was a nice mass, not overly long. The priest tried to get the audience more involved by asking some questions, but amusingly everyone was pretty clueless. For instance, he asked how the apostles recognized the newly resurrected Jesus. Everyone fell silent for a moment, then the wrong answers began to flow like so much holy water. People said, "his eyes", "his voice" and my personal favorite, "his glow". Now, I'm no religious scholar, but I know that Jesus was recognized by his 5 wounds. Hasn't anybody seen Stigmata? I felt bad for the priest, I think he was disappointed that nobody knew. To me, church is like anything, if one isn't going to pay attention, why bother?
Aside from church, I didn't do much else. I did watch Interview with the Vampire for a little story writing inspiration. My favorite line...
And what if there is no Hell, or they don't want us there? Ever think of that?
I have more write, but I'll do it tomorrow.
