Happy Jesus/bunny day to those who celebrate it. In Montreal, it seems we've got a white Easter, in place of the white Christmas we didn't get. Yesterday, it was bright and sunny and snowing, which I'd never seen before.

I know April showers bring May flowers, but what do April snowstorms bring?

I'm spending this long weekend in the office. It's quite peaceful. I'm averaging 2,500 words a day now, and I'm proud of that since it's mostly new material (harder to write), and I've worked most of those days.

I'm also on the fourth branch of the Mabinogion, which is the one I've been lifting second-hand fairy-tales to weave into my novel. Since I got all those stories about Math and Gwydion and Llew Llaw Gyffes second-hand, I decided to return to the source.

There are some definite gaps in the the storyline, which is to be expected in mythology -- like, "Why does the wizard Math have to keep his feet in the lap of a virgin most of the time?" That's just dropped in, without explanation. When Aranrhod is revealed as not-a-virgin by Math's magic, I was half-expecting her to shout, "I didn't think that counted!"

The Everything meme

My results for the everything meme:

( This meme makes even less sense for me than most )

I especially like the "politics" and "socio-economic" boxes side-by-side like that. and I don't even listen to punk rock.

EDIT: It's practically a blizzard out there, now. An Easter blizzard!
