Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

Happy Thanksgiving, Americanskis! Happy Thursday to the rest of you!

One of the best T-Days I ever had was spent in England, walking around the Tower of London and visiting the British Museum and so on.

Our wings are not tired.

"I stand beside him with an axe!"

That's awesome.

Happy Thanksgiving!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Happy Birthday Daisy. Thanks for the offer, but my parents are in that area and are talking to families with young kids, teachers,realtors whatnot about various neighborhoods.

Watching the Parade a it should be. My cranberry salad is started and I'll do the rest in an hour or so. Now, coffee.

Because books.

I'm watching the parade, too, with a sleeping kitten on my lap. The turkey's in, or so I'm told, so now it's just the countdown to eating.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'm watching the Macy's parade and putting up the tree. There are some lovely ropes of crystal-like drops that should go on it first. I can't find the blasted things. I had them last year, in the same apartment. There aren't that many places I could have put them. Hmmmmmm.

At least my back closet is getting organized as I look.

I do love the Thanksgiving-to-New Years decorated period. Sure, it's dark when I get home. But that's so the lights will look extra pretty.

This is my first tree time with the cat. So far he's sniffed the artificial tree once and gone off to explore the box it came in for half an hour. Which is exactly how I hoped it would go.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Happy birthday, DJ!

Happy Thanksgiving!

This is the brief calm before the day takes over. I'm gonna pour myself a cup of coffee and try to grade a paper before I need to do anything else.

He's totally supporting his son, going so far as to say "I stand beside him with an axe!" -which is oddly heartwarming.

That is sweet.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Birthday, DJ!!

I am off to shower and then drive up to my sister's for the day.

I've missed Natter for the past couple of weeks, man. Not even been a lurker. Boo.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jen! Did you move? How are things?
