Special Day Cats

Ok, here it is. Today is the latest day that humans have decided to make special. They named it Easter, and argue about why it is called that. It doesn't seem to have anything to do with the kind of day it is. The story is that one of their gods was killed on a Friday - see last Friday's story - and when they went to fix him up to be buried on the next Sunday, he was gone. Some people made a big deal out of this and said he came back to life. They figured that he went to heaven and promised that they could go to heaven as well. I guess they celebrate because they decided it means that he would save their lives after they die. It seems like a nice idea, but to make a whole day out of it - well - that's how humans are. Some of the customs for this special day are to get all dressed up and go to church, even if you haven't gone since Christmas. They give kids baskets full of candy and eggs, and there is a lot to do with rabbits. Kasey and I don't get it. I don't think it is a secret that He and She don't get it either. She thinks it is a welcome to spring and a new beginning of the year, and He thinks it is a way to sell baskets and eggs and candy. She says some people have big dinners on this kind of day. It makes Her laugh to think a lot of people eat lamb meat, because lambs are particularly cute and fluffy, but maybe they think the lambs will go to heaven. For our dinner tonight, She is going to fix pizza, which is fine with me. In case there is no pizza in heaven, She is going to eat a lot of it right here here we live. Dying is very peculiar. We don't like to think about it, but She says it is heaven right here  and as long as there are good memories, no one ever really dies. I guess that is why She still thinks about Their old cat, Charlotte all the time. I don't think there is another special day for a while.Well, I hope you had a nice special day today. Bye now.
