Bleh. I missed Easter. I came down with the stupid stomach bug that is making the rounds here, and had to miss the Easter Vigil, which is only my favorite service of the entire year, and I didn't feel well enough to make the drive to St. Ned's Sunday morning, either. So I need everyone to sing a couple bars of Jesus Christ is Risen Today to make me feel better. Ok? On three....
I was feeling a bit better by late afternoon on Sunday, and I was starting to go a mite stir-crazy from being in the house for two days, so Dennis took me out for a little skee-ball and a movie. We saw Hellboy, which seemed like a fine choice for Easter. Or not. But I liked it a lot more than I expected to, and it was nice to be out with the Dennis. Plus the rickety old Addams Family pinball machine at the arcade was malfunctioning and kept giving us free balls, which was fun once we got used to the fact that the flippers were a bit delayed and played the game accordingly. Still badly, of course, but hey, free balls.
We rounded out the evening with some tidbit TV, which usually takes the form of "VH-1's 100 [blankiest] [blanks]" and is the perfect background noise for getting work done. I sewed beads on the neckline of my future wedding dress (right now, it's a bunch of shapes cut out of fabric), which is what I have been doing for a couple of weeks now. So far, there are 3 gross of Swarovski crystals on there, which sounds like a human disco ball, but somehow isn't.
