What's with Easter?


Someone asked me what date Easter was this year?

I didn't know.

It's not unusual.
I usually miss it all together.
I live in Japan and I am not very religious.
I usually hear about it in a friend's e-mail 2 weeks after it has passed by. Maybe that is why it's also called passover?
Just a thought.

Most North American Holidays I have a lock on: Christmas, New Years, Valentine's Day, and Halloween are all stable.
They don't play mind games with me.
Thanksgiving is different in the U.S. and Canada, but I know what months they are in.
Labour Day only matters to kids, because it determines what day they have to go back to school. At least in Canada; not sure about the U.S..

But Easter is a real floater.
It's unreliable.

Easter is the weatherman of holiday.
