well, i survived my first real holiday away from my family. i'm so thankful that meesh invited me to have thanksgiving with her family. her mom was adorable and a perfect mommy-stand-in. and herniece alyssa was the cutest, smartest, politest 4-year-old i've ever met. about 15 minutes after i arrived, alyssa asked me if i would sit next to her at thanksgiving dinner. awww! we drove down to san diego on wednesday night. had a few beers at tgiFridays (it IS the suburbs!) and then relaxed with a few more beers in the jacuzzi. we slept like champions until like 11am. we woke up, ate lots of delicious food. i haven't had mashed potatoes since i was home. i need to make mashed potatoes more often. they make me happy. then we napped the afternoon away and drove back to LA. her mom even wrapped up a big piece of carrot cake for me to take home.
a few days late, but here's my list. this year i am thankful for:
my incredible, supportive and loving family
my incredible, supportive and loving Boyfriend
new friends and new experiences
old friends and great memories
sunshine and awesome weather ;)
great opportunities and the courage to follow through with them
the public library
the democrats kicking butt in the election
the health and happiness of all of you!
that's all for now. ciao bellas!
