happy thanksgiving!

i had my classes make an "I am thankful for..." list this week to share with the class yesterday. although they didn't quite get the concept [it was supposed to be about the 'little things' - things that wouldn't normally make a 'traditional' thanksgiving list... i.e. my list included eclipse spearmint gum, culver's chili cheese fries, and left-handed desks] it was still hilarious to listen to.

one girl was thankful for her haters.

a boy said he was thankful for his looks [and when i started giggling in the back he looked at me and said, 'what are YOU laughing at, ms. BROWN?!' oops.].

wendy's bacon cheeseburgers made some lists, along with burger king jr. whoppers [i was getting very hungry listening to those].

however, my favorite so far, since i haven't read all of the lists yet, was a freshman boy who said, "I am thankful for girls, girls, girls, because they sexy and got what i need."

i don't believe a comment is necessary for that.

i hope your thanksgiving is wonderful, and you remember to be thankful for the little things as well:)

as for me, i'll be having a little thanksgiving lunch at my house with my mom, her husband, and chris, before i have to leave for work at the restaurant at 2. it's really lame, and i hate that i have to go. i guess if i have to be there, i hope i at least make a solid $10 before leaving at 6.

afterward i'll be heading to chris's aunt's to mooch some leftovers, and then have a little date night. it's our first real holiday together; i'm looking forward to it.

re: black friday... we had discussed partaking in the festivities for the first time after having to work it so many years in a row, but i'm not sure there's anything worth standing in line for at 3 in the morning. we'll see.


happy thanksgiving; eat a socially unacceptable amount today:)
