I literally helped clean up after Thanksgiving in order to get leftovers! And then I haven't really had dinner at home much since, so I still have some turkey and potatoes to eat.
Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am just now having my turkey sandwich today for lunch. I have had other leftovers since Thanksgiving, but I thought I only had enough turkey for one sandwich and didn't want to blow through it too fast (I was wrong about that, fortunately)
And I want to amend my earlier "kind of profound" - what I meant was it is profound but I only kind of understand the deeper meaning that I glimpse within.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I was too sick to go to the neighbors for Thanksgiving dinner. I mentioned to my DH that I was sorry to miss my yearly stuffing binge. I got home last night and he'd made turkey breast, gravy, stuffing and mashed potatoes. HOW SWEET IS THIS GUY?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Scrappy, that is super sweet indeed.
That's kind of profound
Eh, can't take credit. It was a thing people said while he was running, but now it's for real.

It's resonating with vague memories of people's fears about "Jacksonian democracy" and my general feeling that I thought I had come to grips with people not being basically good and decent but I apparently have not because I continue to be shocked every time another thing happens to teach me.
And not reading the comments is not a practical way to handle the next four years, I suppose.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Fuck yeah Steph!

I just wanted to state for the record that Teppy is AWESOME. Even super-picky authors have to acknowledge it.

Nice, Steph!
Uhhg, surgery won't be until the 12th. Something about high risk of post-surgical pneumonia. Alrighty! That got my attention! So I'm rationally ok with the wait, but with no guarantees I'm going to feel any better until then and the prospects of traveling 10 days post-surgery (been assured it is fine, just no heavy lifting)...uuuuhhhhg.
But still no signs of gb infection, so that's good. May it stay that way, at least until I'm past this cold.

Oh, man, sarameg. Two weeks of continuing gallstone pain, and travel so soon after surgery is a lot. Lots of no-infection~ma!
Did I not say "None more sweet"? I thought it really loud.
