We're splitting up for T-Day. My wife and kids are going to northern Iowa with her parents and brother to have Thanksgiving with her great grandmother who is eleventy-one. I'm going to go to my family's get together which I haven't been to in a few years since we were always doing Thanksgiving with my wife's family.
Elliot: I thought I said discreet. Gwen: What, do you see nipple?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Star Trek's 10 Cheesiest Classic Creatures
Episode: "Arena"
Description: A big lizard guy who sounds like a cross between a leaky steam pipe and a constipated pirate. He's strong and tough, but so slow-moving you'd think he worked for the DMV. Kirk fights him on the Asteroid of Unlikely Mineral Deposits, defeating him by inventing gunpowder and blasting him with a diamond the size of William Shatner's ego.
Powers: Strength, imperviousness to fake-looking Styrofoam rocks, flint knapping.
Weaknesses: A diamond to the gut, godlike aliens.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I can't believe they dissed tribbles. Stab Trek fans in the heart, why don't you?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm going to a big extended family T-day at my uncle and aunt's house -- extended in several directions of in-laws' in-laws and whatnot. Should be fun.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
My lunch seemed rather questionable, but it is actually very tasty. It is a tuna club (tuna salad, lettuce, tomato, bacon, red onion) on a tortilla with a slather of sour cream. Weird, right? But GOOD!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I'm driving down to DC tomorrow with DH, Dylan, and my sister (the one who's not in Vegas training to become a gondolier). We'll be staying a whole week, and I'm cooking for 20 people. Hopefully I'll find some time to rest.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm curling up into a ball of sleep, possibly surfacing to feed myself.
I am very boring these days.
I watched too much Star Trek last weekend. Captain Kirk is a prick. Just pissing in everyone's lemonade. Can't deal with people being happy.

Captain Kirk is a prick.
Worse than Picard?
I think Picard would clearly be better, except he's so damn preachy. Plus teh Klingons apparently can't manage any crisis without Picard's help, although I guess that's not really his fault.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
Tom and I are taking Wednesday off and cooking most of the side dishes (stuffing, sweet potatoes, green bean casserole, cranberry sauce, gravy) and prepping the turkey (brining, air chilling) to bring to CT on Thursday to serve and eat.
I think it will be fun.
