That's so horrifying.
Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Mr. S has been annoying pretty much all weekend. (when he's not melting down, sigh...) Poor Gary can barely get a minute to himself.

Sorry you guys had a rough weekend, Sheryl.
It's so quiet in here... pre-Thanksgiving something or other, maybe
What's everyone doing for T-Day?

Going to some friends’ for the day. They want to play football. I said I would cheer but will not play. Darn lesbians wanting to BE sporty instead of just WATCHING sports.
I’ve been in meetings for the past two and a half hours but once I get up to date on my emails I plan to take my car to get the chip repaired. Hoping the drop in service won’t be toooooo slow.
And at some point have to bake a pie.

Cooking all the food! We'll be hosting our first Thanksgiving in the new house and I'm excited about it.
I'm just recovering from a lingering head cold which never got too bad but just wouldn't fucking go away.

I'm about 95% well.
Matilda's off this whole week. So her friend Iris stayed over and they slept in the Garden Apartment. Earlier in the day she had a pile of her friends from school over there watching shows and eating snacks. It's the perfect playhouse.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm going to my uncle's for dinner as usual, but not delivering meals on wheels in the morning, as my mother and I have done the last couple of years. They are trying to get my aunt's parents home before dark, which means 4:30, so everything is shifted up.

Our wings are not tired.

Same here! Prior to that getting a bunch of deliveries, painting, and a whole other long list. I should be stressed, but I am just excited. Whatever gets done will happen, if something doesn't get done, whatever. There will be food and drink; there will be a bunch of people who love each other. If I still have blue tape on woodwork and brown paper on the floor in places it won't matter. If I don't get glasses delivered in time, or whatever else is missing, I'll call someone and have them bring them along. It's all good.

I'll be cooking for a couple of friends. I enjoy cooking, and they enjoy eating, so it should go reasonably well.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'll be reheating Whole Foods takeout with mom and dad, and braising some turkey legs if I can find some. I think mom said we will also need to cook our own sweet potato casserole as the ones WF had available were all full of cream. Mom and I are both the kind of people who like to calculate how long everything needs to be in the oven or on the stovetop or whatever and make a schedule of when what needs to be where, so that'll be a fun morning activity. Probably watching football some of the time. Turning leftovers into soup and pie.
