Tonight I'm having Thanksgiving at my parents' house. Because my sister works retail and always has to work Black Friday, she can rarely join us at my Grandparents' house for the actual holiday. Thus the celebration a week early.
I'm excited to see her, eat turkey, eat pie. My dad makes the best pies. Now that he's retired, I'm sure he's cooked up something amazing for us.
We missed the Lighting of Central Park last night and the lighted parade. We planned to go, but when I got off work yesterday it was freezing rain, 12 degrees, and super windy. I knew I would be cold and miserable the whole time. Plus Brett refuses to end basketball practice early just to go with me to the parade, so he ends up missing half of it, while I stand freezing by myself at the corner of the park.We should have sucked it up and just gone, but since it was before Thanksgiving, I wasn't in the holiday mood yet. I usually love going because it's around December 5...the perfect time to get into the Christmas spirit. It's a great way to kick off the season. But I'm not ready for the season--I want to enjoy Thanksgiving first. I should take that up with the Chamber.
I'm hungry today. Like really hungry. I don't know why that happens sometimes, but I wake up starving. I suppose that's a good way to go into a Thanksgiving meal though...
I have no reason for this post, other than keeping this blog alive. I've been blogging somewhere else recently, but here I'm not anonymous. Sometimes it's good to be yourself.
Speaking of...I think that's the theme of my play: Be yourself. Who knows? I still have a looooong way to go.
