Guess what? It's also Easter today. In the Greek Orthodox church, that is. My best friend belongs to that church, and today she finally gets her Easter.

They run on a different calendar for religious holidays - I've yet to find out exactly why, though - and although usually their Easter is a week after 'normal' Easter, this year it was a long time after.

So let's add in Happy Easter, as well. ;)
