matrixrefugeeOr Kalo Pascha, as my Greek employers would say, since Greek Easter is next Sunday.
Okay, rants about Amazon.com stupidity aside... Yesterday was quiet and restful, the way I needed it to be after a crazy week at work. For dinner, the three of us went to Cracker Barrel, and I persuaded my folks to try the hash brown casserole, along with the ham. Along with their Easter baskets, I gave my dad a copy of Norman Rockwell's wonderful, chatty autobiography, and to my mom, thus nifty book on Jane Austen, which featured little mementos in tiny parchment envelopes, including facsimiles of some of "Aunt Jane's" letters and one of her notebooks.
And I want to tickle-torture Hideki Anno for using so much classical music in Neon Genesis Evangelion: the organist, choir, and string quartet at Mass performed several pieces which triggered some very distracting (and scarring) flashbacks, including Bach's Air on the G String (End of Evangelion) and Handel's Halleluia Chorus (one particularly damaging scene in a later episode of NGE).
