Happy Easter, and happy 4/20! This may seem like an odd juxtaposition, but an occasion that involves getting high and another that involves baskets of candy make a well-suited combination. Also, happy Passover! I failed to mention that when it began, but the eight day holiday ends today, so I'm barely in time for that. MrsBlue and I have plans today unrelated to any of today's celebrations, as we have tickets to a minor league baseball game. We're looking forward to a little fresh air and sunshine, and of course, $12 hot dogs.
