Holy Tuesday - The red-headed stepchild of Holy Week

Let's face it, this is a big time week for Christianity: we lead off with Palm Sunday, jump to Holy-Last Supper-Thursday, and power into the weekend with Good Friday. Today, however, is Holy Tuesday. Yeah, I know what your thinking: SWEEET!!!

You're not going to find any entrances into Jerusalem or liberations of the patriarchs from hell today. No, today is seen by many as the bastard child of Holy Week on which nothing of note happened. But I'm here to tell you that they call it "Holy" Tuesday for a reason, in fact, several of them. As a public service I have decided to list for you all the important things that Jesus did on Holy Tuesday, so as this day might receive its proper due:

• Finally unpacked His bags and got settled at the hotel. Sunday was so hectic with the crowds and finding a place to park the donkey, and He spent all day Monday sightseeing, but on Holy Tuesday Jesus finally hung up His robes, caught some TV and put His feet up for a minute.
• Paid the Holy Visa bill.
• Scheduled wake-up call for 4 am Sunday.
• Double-checked with God about the whole resurrection thing.
• Had a nice dinner with Peter and his new girlfriend.
• Considered the lilies of the field.
• Wrote the Meek out of His will due to pressure from the Poor in Spirit.
• Sent postcard to Joseph, who couldn't get out of work for the trip (apparently, there was something that needed to be made out of wood ASAP, that couldn't possibly wait till after the death and resurrection of the Savior).
• Was briefly tempted by the Devil with the promise of free mini bar.
• Got hair cut.
• Just for laughs, told John that he was the brick upon which He would build His house of worship.
• For old times sake, healed a leper.
• Practiced Last Supper speech in mirror, decided against banging sandal on table and telling Judas "I will crush you".
