Aside from the crappy weather, I had a most enjoyable Easter. On Easter morning I woke up and fried some SPAM. I ingested the healthy meat by-product while watching shots of the Pope at St Peter’s Square, and then turned to a fascinating documentary about Mary Magdalene. I even watched a bit of Rod Parsley, he was a hoot yesterday!! Finally, after a warm resurrecting shower I popped over to see my son and his mom.I took him a card and some money. He was packing his suitcase for his trip to Chi-Town. He is spending the week in Chicago with his aunt and uncle and their family. I took his mom a half gallon of Chocolate Caramel ice cream, because she had given up ice cream for Lent. I wasn’t there long because he had to snap to and hit the road, so I went to see a brother of mine and then returned to the abode to call a few family members.
Schmoop made some mac and cheese. I put the ham in the crock-pot and then proceeded to grill up a few cheddar mettwurst to accompany our hot buffalo wings. Schmoop, her brother Dave, and I gorged on meat and sipped some Easter libation…Nice. It wasn’t terribly exciting, it wasn’t deeply religious, it was simply a relaxing meat-filled day. I was however, fortunate enough to wake up with bite marks on chest this morning, but that story is for another day…or not.
Today, I am tired. I think I am just emotionally worn out, because these past six weeks have ignited a profound change in me. It is time for me to move on a few things that I have always wanted to do, but have been a bit apprehensive to initiate the actions. Maybe this Easter season my backbone and confidence have been in a sense, resurrected.
Yeah, I know, this post isn’t funny, but oddly enough it is putting a smile upon my face. I guess because, I had a good Easter weekend, and I am looking forward to implementing my new “Damn the torpedoes, full steam ahead” attitude…well that and I am looking forward to having Chicken Parmigiana tonight as well.
Until the ‘morrow, Cheers!!
P.S. You can once again touch my monkey ODAT...

I played with your monkey, too.
And slipped him a banana.
Mmmm... ham and Mac&Cheese!
You cheeky monkey you, Mo-Man. Yes Mo, the ham and the mac and cheese was a beautiful thing. Dear God was it ever!!
I'm sort of relieved you didn't go into a meat coma. Glad you had a good, relaxing weekend.
And I'm immensely happy for you and your newfound confidence. Go for it, Matt, and best of luck!
Oh, and happy Chicken Parmigiana night. :-) Cheers!
Thanks Lizza, I believe that the bite marks had something to do with preventing a coma. I am looking forward to eating the CP tonight. Cheers!!
Woohoo. It sounds like the spine is alive and kicking. Damn the torpedoes indeed!

Nat, perhaps my plans will crash and burn, but they will do so with no regrets...Cheers!!
First of all, what a good man you are for bringing the ex ice cream after 46 days of abstinence. That was very thoughtful! And chocolate caramel? Yum!
I am intrigued by this new Matt.
Enjoy the Chicken Parmigiana; so glad you didn't have a heart attack from the sudden surge of animal fat and cholesterol, though. Try to hold back a bit, dear!
Doing a happy dance now!!!!!
Petting the monkey over and over again...phew!! I missed him so!!!

Songbird, I try to do the right thing whether it is appreciated or not. In this case it was. I see a Mickey D's double cheeseburger in my near future.

Glad you survived the return of meat.

Welcome back to the land of bratwurst and ham and spam and cheeseburgers and bacon and anything else that used to oink or moo or cluck.
We love you!
Odat: He's getting spoiled.
Trav: As always, well said.
