Awkward and Awesome Thanksgiving

The chef!

 
Awkward:

• No more snow as of yet. Boooo!
• Taking an antihistamine right before consuming large amounts of tryptophan . . . and waking up four hours later. Talk about awkward. Happy Thanksgiving btw . . . zzzzzzzzzzzzz . . .
• Fitting in all of the family and friends we want to spend time with at the holidays . . . literally impossible.
• Being invited to five turkey dinners. Not two. Not three. But five.
• Josh setting up the family's Netflix account on the Wii. OMG. Such an ordeal.
• Twilight fans.
• Ramen noodles. So good, but I feel my blood pressure rising while I eat them.
• Aragorn, the Thurston's obese cat
• Falling out of bed so hard that I now have a goose egg and a brush burn. I am special.

Awesome:

• Mama Thurston's mashed potatoes. They are an enigma of smoothness.
• Trivia night last night! Second place. What are you gonna do?
• Getting to see fellow marrieds Hannah and Kevin this Saturday
• Saving money. Budgeted $120 to buy a new taillight--spent $15. Budgeted $40 to get pants tailored--spent $4. Bunches of win.
• Cranberry relish. Homemade.
• Meeting my cousin's fancy hockey-playing girlfriend. She's a serious beast. Not physically, though. She's small and cute :-)
• Date with sister Nikki. Oh, how I have missed her!
• Black Friday shopping . . . so excited . . .
• The Jeremy Sumpter Peter Pan movie soundtrack
• Decorating the Thurston's Christmas tree
