thanksgiving!
well actually i'm going to back up a few days...
mon: i went to school as usual except when i got to class it was flooded and therefor canceled! i could have gone home since my next class was 3 hours away but i figured i'd get some breakfast and study instead. so i went and got some breakfast and ran into paul. so we spent the whole morning chilling in the union eatting, watching tv, and studying for my math test. then we tried to go to the ransom museum on campus but it ended up being closed but we did get to see the first photograph ever taken (it was displayed just outside the gallery), it's horrible quality! then i went to my math test, which i'm pretty positive i aced it.
tues: didn't do much. slept in, cleaned, went to my night class, went and watched eyra and the guys win the IM bball tournament. and then went back to the guys' place for some yummy pumkin pie ricky made. it had this sour cream topping...it was mmm mmm good!
wed: woke up, packed, eyra jumped my car (which was an ordeal but that story involves visuals), drove home w/o stopping anywhere so my car wouldn't die on me. i made it to my stepdad's and left my car there. mom picked me up. we had our thanksgiving that night so me and my brother went grocery shopping at the nice new heb woodlands market. came home, i made a chocolate apple pie (yum), garlic basil mashed potatoes, and the stuffing. my mom cooked the turducken (which is turkey, duck, and chicken with stuffing between the layers...i dont recommend it!), green bean cassarole, squash and gravy. over all, very yummy! afterwards we all played catch phrase...but we're all very competitive (by we all i actually mean: me, mike, and mom)and it turned into a lot of yelling!
thur: woke up early and watched part of the parade on tv. then we left to go downtown to serve food but we got down there and couldn't find parking so we ended up finding a starbucks, got some coffee, read the paper, and went home. we really did try to be helpful. then me and mike went to our dads for thanksgiving dinner. mmm it was even better than the night's before, there was a real turkey (fresh actually...my dad killed it the night before). then the kids took the annual christmas picture...which i was very annoyed that they all wanted to do one of the pictures in front of the tractor. i drew the line there. ohhh and we watched elf! so funny! and then we me, mike and natty all went to mike's girlfriends' and played mississippi mud (card game) with her family and me and natty kicked their asses! watched the apprentice...me and my mom got into a heated discussion over ivana (spelling?) and jen. i like ivana and mom really dislikes her and i really dislike jen and mom really likes her. anyways...natty was going to stay the night with kristen (mike's gf) but she got sick and came home with me.
today: i'm missing the big game....and i couldn't even sell my ticket :( not even to any of my aggie friends. next time i'll try ebay. the good news is my mom is letting me have her ticket for the texans vs. the titans game on sunday which are front row seats!
alright it's time to go decorate for xmas :)
p.s. my birthday is in 15 days
