Thinksgiving

Does anyone have such a large family that every holiday that rolls around is celebrated multiple times because your parents wanted to see everyone? Yea, me too. Well, this year was by no means an acception. Considering I have a fairly large family as is and the fact that my parents are divorced, I have so far had a total of 4 thanksgiving dinners. I am finishing off my Thanksgiving celebrations tonight with one last dinner with my friends. This post, unlike most or all of my other posts, does not really have much to do with me failing in some ridiculously irresponsible way. Instead, I have actually remained fully committed to my responsibilities and completed all everything that needed to be done in a timely manner. This included planning the dinner, making a few of the sides(it was a pot luck sort of thing), picking a few of my friends up, and actually arriving at the house where the dinner was being held. I really hate to disappoint those that enjoy reading of my misfortune, but this Thanksgiving was time that I was able to manage properly and with the slightest of mishaps. Hooray for me. Anyway, I would also like to wish all of those that celebrate holiday *cough cough, William Kamffer, cough cough* a happy belated Thanksgiving.

    You make me laugh. I'm glad to hear that you had such a great Thanksgiving experience and enjoyed your time off school and your part-time job as a slacker ;). One of my friends actually has a similar problem to you with the big family thing, only they handle it a little differently. They've all agreed over the years that everyone will celebrate Thanksgiving with their own families at home, on the actual holiday, and then go to his grandparent's house to celebrate it as one big huge family the day after. It seems really smart, yet really filling! I hope everyone had a great day on Thursday and ate their fill and is ready to get back to school tomorrow! :)

  2. So it seems that when you are not doing something for a grade, you can actually get it done on time?

    And I'll have you know, sir, that Thanksgiving this year was impossible as my dad was in the hospital. I just throw that out there so you can pity me rather than ridicule.
