happy thanksgiving.

oates won't post, so i will. while the whole concept of "Thanksgiving" seems to be contested, i say, let's just make it about being thankful. (duh.) while, like valentine's day, we as a people shouldn't have to wait for a certain day a year to be grateful for and/or feel blessed by everything around us, it's a good reminder for us young, yet cynical folk to keep our heads up and to appreciate what we have instead of what we don't have. that may have been a convoluted run-on, but please bear with me. well. in any case, it all boils down to the sheer awe i feel when i think of those around me - their capacity to support, entertain, be knowledgable, empathize, love. how lucky i am to surround myself with wonderful people. blah blah blah...thank YOU.

my way too awesome pun of the day:
K: i'm a liability!
A: no...you have lie ability!

as someone put it, to oates: "i hope your thanksgiving is as stuffing as mine."

celebrate your families and your friends. if i can do it, you can too.
