What's with people getting good friday off anyway? It's not a holiday... it's a holy day of obligation. NOT the same thing!
edit: And yes... I said "cathaholic".
Today is not a Holy Day of Obligation, these are the Holy Days of Obligation, I work as a youth minister, so I am glad to have today off and not have to be in church (but I am going to Stations of the Cross later anyway):
* 1 January: Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God
* 6 January: the Epiphany
* 19 March: Solemnity of St. Joseph, Husband of the Blessed Virgin Mary
* Thursday of the sixth week of Easter: the Ascension
* Thursday after Trinity Sunday: the Body and Blood of Christ
* 29 June: Solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul, Apostles
* 15 August: the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary
* 1 November: All Saints
* 8 December: the Feast of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary
* 25 December: the Nativity of our Lord Jesus Christ (Christmas)
