Right, there comes a point where you have to either move on, or just buy yourself a Klingon costume and go with it.

I'm glad to see others agree with me on a proper time to eat Thanksgiving dinner (I've always aimed about 2:30, I think...time enough to sleep in a bit, nibble something for breakfast, then cook until you're starving).

However, the one I"m going to doesn't start until 6:30. So I ate lunch. I have a feeling this may mean I'm not hungry for turkey. Nooooo! Curses!!

Karma is a cat, sleeping in my lap cuz it loves me. ~TS

I am being MOCKED for being the only person in the house who got trapped by The Game. So not fair.

If only ita and Lee were.

Happy Turkey Day!

I am watching a marathon of The Closer and all these Day After Thanksgiving Sale commercials are making me nostalgic for the good old days, when doorbuster sales started at 8 AM. This 5 AM stuff is just insane.

Nothing could drag me to a mall on the day after t-day no matter what the time. But it does seem to indicate an uptick in the craxy.

I always loved the Day After shopping. We'd get up early, be there when the stores opened and be done before noon. Then we'd have a nice lunch and get home by 2 or 3. Just in time for a nap!

I love shopping on the day after t-day. But I shop with purpose and a plan and I could totally do 5AM because that's the only time I'm awake and feeling up to shopping. It's a weird thing.

Allyson was nice enough to brave the early AM to drive me up the mountain. Isn't she the best?

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

I have no notable food of which to take pictures. And I did kettlebell on too empty a stomach.

Ah, well. Done deal.

Maybe I'll make pasta when I get back from the movie.

Maybe.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

ita is definitely the nice one. I was going to agree with you, but then assure you we would have mocked you too.

I had two dreams during my nap. In the first one, I showed up to a party at ita's, made fun of some of her guests for arriving in helicopters, then hid in the bedroom. When I came out, everyone had left, except both of her sisters (and yes, I know she only has one) who were cleaning, so I offered to help clean up, but then left when they said they were okay. As I was leaving, I promised myself to be more social in the next party. The second dream started to be about the second party, but I don't know if I was more social, because one of her guests turned into Ozzie and started licking my cheek, which woke me up.
