better late then never

i had a wonderful Thanksgiving yesterday with Courtney, her husband Adam, and their friend Pat. Pat did most of the cooking, and brought me some red pepper risotto and carrot soup. totally unnecessary, but so very kind of him to do so. I always think it's funny that non-vegetarians think we are missing out so much at thanksgiving, not having any turkey. but really, it's the stuffing, potatoes, cranberries, and pumpkin pie that makes the holiday worthwhile for me. we had all that, and a ton of appetizers, plus the truffles I brought from Vosges. mmmm so very expensive and delicious. totally worth it. Courtney and I had lots of gossip to catch up on, and a huge debate with the guys over whether or not Transformers is cool (you can guess which side we were on).
without further ado, here are some things I am thankful for, not necessarily in this order:
1. wonderfully supportive parents who back me in everything I do and taught me independence, respect, kindness, and courtesy.
2. friends whom I couldn't live without: Teresa, Aurora, Noelle, Cassie, Kevin, Ulises, Courtney, Nikki, Ly. i have so much support and they have seen me through these last few months. i hope i am half as good a friend to them as they are to me.
3. an awesome job that I love. I am so, so spoiled there.
4. awesome coworkers that make work fun.
5. a roof over my head, food in the fridge, my space heater, scarves and mittens... all the warm things to get me through Minnesota winter.
6. all of you on my friends list who read everything i fling into the cyberworld: joy, fear, sorrow, nervousness, and the mundane musings of my life. thanks guys. :)

life fulfillment
