On Thanksgiving, some people get up to watch the parade, others football... /I/, however, just had to get up early and watch the National Dog Show. There was a lovely red wheaten Ridgeback bitch, makes me so so want my pup.
At any rate, Thanksgiving is supposedly a time to be well, thankful. Admittedly this is kinda hard for me, as things have just been... falling apart the last week or so. There's a saying 'when it rains, it pours' that certainly is true. It doesn't seem like things could get much worse, but you know what? In the scheme of things, they really could. I've got my health (more or less... lets ignore the fact I'm probably heading back to a doctor soon), I have regular meals and someplace to live. /And/ I can pursue the things I love to do, if not as much as I sometimes want. Not to mention all of the people I'm able to call friends, both irl and online.
Admittedly, I'm an idealist at heart. With me, no matter how bad it looks I'm always of the belief things could change and go my way. Sure, its frequently 'unlikely', but no one can ever say I'm pessimistic or a quitter. I quite suspect I could be hanging onto something by my fingernails and still believe I wouldn't fall. With everything life's handed me I should be horribly bitter, but... I really do believe in people and the human condition. I've yet to figure out /why/ though.
... *ugh* wow, I sound annoyingly upbeat. I swear I'm not always like that *snicker* Its all the stress, has gone to my brain I say ;) At any rate, I should probably go be social for a bit more (and maybe search up some leftovers *mmm*), since I just stopped by the house to grab some stuff and thought I'd post quicklike while I was here, so no more rambling out of me.
