Thanksgiving is going to be a non-event for me this year--and hopefully by the time Christmas rolls around it'll be less painful to travel.
However, if I don't get off my butt to buy tickets, that'll be moot.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Feh. Hope you feel better.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I am large with the holiday malaise -- no clue what to do about Thanksgiving, except that I reallyreally don't want to deal with family. Either side. Perhaps on the phone, but only briefly. Food will be eaten. Not really inspired by the whole turkeyish genre this year. Currently lacking any other ideas. Might hunt down friends, if others are similarly unattached and uninspired.
Oh, and there must be cranberries.
Go team everyone's favorite holiday?

Honestly, I love my family. I enjoy spending time with them (when they aren't doing inlaw drama.) I look forward to seeing them. But right now? My found family holiday is what I look forward to. No weird loaded expectations, no obligations. Just people. That I like. Who entertain me.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Is it wrong that I hope I feel about 3% worse tomorrow morning, so that I can justify not going to work?

I'm only working a partial day tomorrow. CJ has an orthodontist appointment at 11am. He will offically enter the braces phase of pre-teen life. Poor boy.

Burrell, I highly advocate running away.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Survivor was excellent tonight: "Jonathan, getting frustrated by me!" "Day 21!" Ha!
