A Good Friday Shehecheyanu

[sylvar]

Yeah, I get funny looks from Jews and Christians, but I do find useful bits on both sides of 4BCE. So here it is, Good Friday, and I've just found out this morning that I don't have glaucoma (the optometrist wondered, but the opthalmologist said there's no problem). So here's a Shehecheyanu (alternate explanation):

Blessed are You, Universe-King, who has brought us safely into this day.

Woo hoo!

Happy whatever you celebrate! Atheists, enjoy the less-crowded stores on Sunday morning!

Except for movie theatres, Walgreens, and CVS, everything'll be closed, dammit. Maybe I'll go see The Bashin' of the Christ...

Hey, Wal⋆Mart will be open -- for several weeks the operations dais has had a sign that says "NO MORE REQUESTS FOR TIME OFF ON APRIL 11 WILL BE GRANTED"...

h&r block will be open. i'm curious to see which will be the stronger factor: the whole easter thing or the fact that sunday is that last weekend day before april 15th.
