American Thanksgiving was three days ago. In the name of posterity, here is a list of five things I am grateful for:
1. MARK MCKINNEY. In my humble opinion, nobody does head-crushing or partial Australian accents quite like he does.
2. WHISKEY. In the context of "so last night I was drinking wine with dinner and then afterwards I was trying to write this Shakespeare essay, except it was hard. So I drank a whole pile of whiskey and it was still hard to write that essay".
3. RAY EMERY. Goal-tending skills aside, have you SEEN those arms??!!
4. THE FACT THAT THE ENGLISH DEPARTMENT DOESN'T LOCK THEIR BUILDING AT NIGHT. Otherwise, I'd probably be really screwed all the time.
5. PEOPLE WHO WILL CHANGE YOUR PRINTER'S TONER FOR FREE. Thank some non-specific, non-religious figure these people exist.
And I totally could have done with a four day holiday right around now.
