Happy Easter. I'm really lazy, as it's 3:48 right now, and I'm still sitting around in my pj's when I should be showering and heading over to the family gathering.
I went and had a few drink with my little sister last night, of all people. Ran into a few people I went to high school with. Not friends, not even acquaintances, really. Just...people. It did give me some measure of satisfaction that they were, well, not doing much with their lives. I don't mean I'm happy they're stuck in a dead-end job with a wife they don't really love and a baby girl already; just that it made me realize my own situation isn't as dire. Hey, I take my pick-me-ups where I can get 'em.
And my dad lent me a couple blazers for my interview, since I am lacking in that department. Well, I better go shower so I can go eat tasty ham and whatnot. I even made brownies. They are chewy goodness.
Lyrics for today: XTC - "Easter Theare"
"Gold sun rolls around
Chocolate nipple brown
Tumble from your arms
Like the ground your breasts swell
Land awake from sleep
Hares will kick and leap
Flowers climb erect
Smiling from the moist kiss of her rainbow mouth
Stage left
Enter Easter and she's dressed in yellow yolk
Stage right
Now the son has died, the father can be born
Stand up
If we'd all breathe in and blow away the smoke
New life, we'd applaud her new life
Odin mounts the tree
Bleeds for you and me
Splashing on the lamb
Gamboling with spring step
Buds will laugh and burst
Racing to be first
Turning all the soil
As the prompter's fingers through her spinning script
Stage left
Enter Easter and she's dressed in yellow yolk
Stage right
Now the son has died, the father can be born
Stand up
If we'd all breathe in and blow away the smoke
New life, we'd applaud her new life
Easter... in her bonnet
Easter... in her hair
Easter... are the ribbons
She ties everywhere
Stage left
Enter Easter and she's dressed in yellow yolk
Stage right
Now the son has died, the father can be born
Stand up
If we'd all breathe in and blow away the smoke
In her bonnet
Easter... everywhere
Easter..."
