My friend throws a party every Easter and there are Easter Egg hunts and basket-swapping (admittedly a shade tamer than Shik's swappin', but hey, it's Jesus day.) And so this year everyone's basket was supposed to represent a country or land with items and candies representing that place. F'rinstance, the basket I recieved was shaped like a soccer ball (football ball) and had pasta and sauce and mini-Milano cookies for Italy. Because I'm making every effort to never have another girlfriend again, I picked the Death Star:
Which by the way was very tricky to find Star Wars themed candy for. I wound up trying to make a lightsaber by heating up a Hershey's bar and wrapping it around a broomstick. Which mostly failed. Anyway I thought you all might appreciate my efforts or more likely have a good laugh at them.
Did anyone else do anything special/fun/entirely inappropriate to celebrate the death and resurrection of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ?

Nope. Just chocolate and an Iceland turkey roast (forgot to defrost the joint, and those babies cook from frozen). And beer. Of course. Made up for the 5am dawn service.

You could probably still find bags of Phantom Menace-themed candy, like those Jar Jars with lollypop tongues, and other horrors, in the candy aisles of Rite-Aid or other retailers with less than modern merchandise restocking systems.
(I went to work on Easter. After a nice lunch, though.)

I went to work. And called my landlord about my broken refrigerator. Then I sat & waited for the ice man to stop by so that my perishable might be kept cool by the finest technology 1897 can afford.

Easter. I sat home and self-administered antibiotics, then tried to recover data from my old hard drive. I don't get to eat for nother couple months, so I missed out on that, too.
If Star Wars: Galaxies didn't suck now, I would have been playing that.

I just went to a resteraunt and ate all the food on my plate...and my mom's plate...and my dad's plate...then I wash it all down with fucking good milkshake...and then I passed out.
Oh, about the Star Wars candy, I know of a 99-cent store where you can still find Episode One collectable cups that Taco Bell/Pizza Hut used to give out.

I worked....er....then watched Chronicles of Narnia, which was suprisingly Jesus-free. Not bad at all really, if Disney-fied (no blood anywhere!).
I cant recall what I ate, so it couldn't have been too great. (shrugs)
