Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I am so sorry erika

Also sorry Consuela that we didn't warn you. I don't remember mine hurting overly, but that just means that it didn't hurt any more than the cervical biopsy and the 3 IUIs I had done.

Ok, guess who has two uncoordinated thumbs, an awkward family thanksgiving AND her period.(Dental cleaning on Friday, too, just to keep the streak alive.) You know what, Universe, fuck you! And, yeah, I know, maybe one of my family members will get feverish or fall on their heads and become exceedingly warm and awesome(really doubt it...my secret in my head plan is to pretend that I've never really met them before, tbh) and, you know, I could cry right now thinking about, say, Sandra Bland's family this year, but still, I've never felt less grateful in my life without being a snotty eleven-year-old or deeply depressed.

People keep worrying about my being in the hospital for Thanksgiving. I have no emotional attachment to Thanksgiving or any other "family" holiday. I am somewhat more depressed by Christmas, the holiday of my father's most spectacular drunken exhibitions, my cousin explaining the world based on talk radio, his wife's bigoted rants and screaming political arguments. Normally they were doing the screaming, but once when my cousin cited G. Gordon Liddy as a source, I completely lost my shit and screamed, "He puts cigarettes out on his palms."

I've got little attachment to Thanksgiving as well. I'm delighted to work then, because it keeps me busy, I get paid well, and it'll be a quiet day when I can write and watch YouTube videos.

I like Thanksgiving's emphasis on eating. Otherwise, eh. It's just me and Tom and I'm hoping that I'll be able to walk the line between having all my faves and not slaving away in the kitchen all day.

I hope your Thanksgiving is better than expected, Erika.

I've found that I like having Thanksgiving as hermit holiday. There are big friends and coworker things leading up to it, and all the Yuletide stuff after it. Today I'll cook my favorites from the T-day menu and forget the rest, watch the Macy's parade, and read fanfic. I'm thankful that I can do all that, and the family togetherness stuff can wait until Christmas.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

My sister has informed me that I post on Facebook too much. Happy Thanksgiving?

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Hil, I don't have opinions about how much you post in Fb. Other than, I generally like seeing your posts, either here or there so I know you are alive. But this is me noping right out of a thread in Facebook on Syrian refugees. Not responding any more. Not reponding. Not responding, Not responding.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! I'm always thankful for all of you.

Erika, I'm so sorry.

Hil, I like your posts, but I'm sure there are plenty of people out there who think I post too many pictures of ltc.

38 years and my mother still thinks I'm capable of making coherent conversation in the morning.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

My sister has informed me that I post on Facebook too much. Happy Thanksgiving?

Tell her she doesn't post enough.
