Real Thanksgiving was over a month ago
Happy Thanksgiving, Part Two!
I worked this morning--it was really, really busy, but yay for time-and-a-half (and for the shift going really quickly), and I'm hanging out at Jenny's house right now, waiting for dinner tonight. Mmmm... turkey. I should keep track of how many turkey dinners I get this year. This one is number three--we had two for Canadian Thanksgiving--and I'm not sure how many we'll have at Christmas. Between Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and Boxing Day, we'll be at five, possibly six, different dinners/parties/gatherings, and I'm not sure how many of those will involve turkey. I'm guessing two, but I could be wrong.
I haven't quite decided how much Black Friday shopping I'm going to do tomorrow. I'm picking murphy987 up at the airport at 10:30, so I may go out and try to do some shopping (but not stand in line at 3 a.m.) before that, just because I still have quite a few presents to buy, and if I can catch some of the sales (not necessarily the door-crashers, but just the weekend sales), it would probably be a good thing.
I'll do a "thankful list" when I get home tonight, but I'm really looking forward to this weekend. It's good to have some time off, awesome to get to spend some time with Heather, and so good to know that Colin has today and tomorrow off, too, and that even though he's still got work to do, he's able to relax a little. That makes me incredibly happy. And it means that I get to talk to him a little more than usual this weekend. That also makes me happy.
Anyway... more later. In the meantime, enjoy your turkey!
