Er, what? -- Yes, today was Easter again, the Orthodox one; and for the first time in many years, the Nazgul and I didn't go to the Orthodox celebration last night because I was sick. Not as badly as I was on, say, Wednesday (oh my, I was pretty much out of it that night!), but not as improved as I am today.
I saw the Greek guy opposite come home with his family, with some still-burning candles and in a festive mood, and was all jealous because I hadn't been at that church in that milling mass of people and candles and cheerful kids and ancient Byzantine chanting. I love Orthodox Easter.
On the other hand, main thing is really next Sunday -- if I'm fit again for the run/walk in Landshut, then it was a celebration well sacrificed.-
