The non~orthodox paschal weekend was spent messing around the home & garden, which is to say, I made as much mess as I tidied ~ so while I haven't entirely fallen behind in the ever-present struggle against household entropy, I haven't gotten at all ahead either.
Though, according to the Four Laws {count 'em: 0, 1, 2 & 3} of Thermodynamics ~~
~~ {0} I: {1} can't win, {2} can't break even, & {3} can't get out of the game.
So: mess is inevitable; tidying, futile; & just when I'm dead and think that's the end of it, this "fortuitous concourse of atoms" will, having shed any pretension to coherence, spend the afterlife as an ungodly mess {at least from my posthumous perspective}.
Spring cleaning will only stave off the ultimate heat death of the universe by infinitesimal dribs & drabs {worth mentioning if only because it makes the current state of my kitchen seem reasonable & decent by comparison}.
Now I've got a ditty stuck in my head:
I got algorythym,
I got physics,
I got pascal,
Who could postulate anything more?
~ { & } ~ { & } ~ { & } ~
The ~orthodox paschal feast I hope to spend with the common~law in~laws. I'm looking forward to it; they are always pleasant company.

Hmmm.... I'm a bit link-happy today...
