And we just ordered pizza because we don't feel like cooking anything else tonight.

I am not doing Thanksgiving until Friday but figure I need to hit the grocery store today?
I was planning to go dancing but am not sure how it’s only 630! I stopped work around 3, walked the dog, had the friend who is house sitting come over and we gabbed for a long time, and now it feels like surely it’s 8pm. Will I make it off the couch to dancing which starts at 8pm? ….doubtful.
Shir I hope the ceasefire works out.

Pretty sure I heard somewhere that the Wednesday of Thanksgiving week is right up there with Super Bowl Sunday in pizza sales.
We're mostly having a lovely time in Mexico, except that Dylan is having knee pain issues. (Unsure what exactly--he's going to see the doctor once we're back home.) Fortunately this isn't the kind of place with CAN'T MISS SIGHTS! or MAJOR MUSEUMS! and I'm honestly perfectly happy just to sit by the pool or in our air conditioned cottage and enjoy the fact I'm not at work, nor surrounded by everything that needs to get done around the house.

The pizza got here in 15 minutes. That's a record for our neighborhood pizza place. We greeted the delivery guy with much praise.

Punishingly Intricate
Dad’s transfer from the rehab facility back to their apartment and our meeting with the hospice nurse went well. My brother in NC is coming up tomorrow night with my nephew so we’ll do Thanksgiving Friday at my folks. I’m making a very delicious miso squash soup and homemade applesauce both of which my Dad will be able to eat (he can’t really do solid food now).

That's the way.

Happy Thanksgiving, Buffistas. And continued {{{lisah}}} {{{smonster}}} and general ~ma to everyone and this place.

Cereal ceasefire: I just wrote to friends "Hamas and Qatar approve our [dependent on ceasefire] plans for tomorrow", and not in a tongue in cheek way.
This timeline is really weird, y'all.
(Starting 7am tomorrow, and hostages will start to be released on 4pm and I don't think I'll breathe until I see them back in the country).

Our wings are not tired.
Happy Thanksgiving! I am so grateful for all of you, every day of the year.
