I'm sorry Laura. It's so hard dealing with aging parents. Much ~ma to you and yours today.

Spike's Bitches 48: I Say, We Go Out There, and Kick a Little Demon Ass.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Happy Thanksgiving & Happy Hanukkah!
My sister just closed the oven with a potholder inside.
How do I love a quiet holiday? I love it a lot.
I made the very best pot of turkey chili I've ever made in my life. It was from this recipe.
I added chunky carrots and celery and used both black and kidney beans instead of pinto. Oh, and twice the called for salsa.
Seriously delish.
Cagney had a friend over for a play date and has been very playful with me all day.
On this evening's walk, I passed the house of the last group Thanksgiving I went to...which was completely horrible.
I'm so grateful to be right here, right now.
Happy eating everyone!
I got Nigel to say "reverse the polarity on the speakers."
My sister was standing behind me repeating everything I say in song.
I'm glad you are having a lovely quiet day, bonny.
Zenkitty, you make me chuckle.
Laura, it's a tough thing. I don't know what else to say.
I actually got Cagney to eat a green vegetable for the first time. I steamed some kale and boiled some beets. They were both hits with the little dude.
I made the mistake of watching a film on hulu written and directed by Walter Koenig...starring Richard Hatch. It is ostensibly a think piece on a father's love for his son...but the son is an alien parasite who looks like a cross between the Baby from Dinosaurs in adolescence and, I dunno, the human centipede.
I need some brain bleach. A psychic palette cleanser...but I already watched Pangs.
Bah.
I'm listening to Alice's Restaurant AIFG.
We went to a friend's house for dinner. They are Mexican and El Salvadorian. We had turkey, ham, salad, and rice. And lots of pie. But now I have no left overs. Dinner was nice, if very light on English. We left a bit early after I realized the mom had kidney surgery just two weeks ago and was fading.
Ah crap, just realized I forgot to call my Mom and Sister today. Not that they tried to call me either, but still, I screwed up. I'll call tomorrow and make amends.
