My sister played Ashokan Farewell at my mom's.
I want my friends to get drunk and sing "Will the Circle Be Unbroken."
I like that idea.
Oh, wow. This place looks great. Oh, I feel like a witch in a magic shop.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Nope. So far I've been too lazy to look at tumblr.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I just had a stranger basically tell me to watch my language regarding a comment on SOMEONE else's Facebook status update. WTF?
I love I'll Fly Away and Down by the River by Allison Krauss.

T-day plans finally set. Not going to St. Louis for our big family extravaganza. It's always really fun, but I'm busy enough and exhausted enough that I just wasn't feeling it. And that's before considering the 6 hour drive and having to get a hotel, because I'd have to take the dog with me.
In lieu of that, I've somehow agreed to go to T-day at my sister's boyfriend's parents' house. Hmm. Well, the food will be good, and there will be football. Hopefully won't be too awkward.

I'm a bit depressed about Thanksgiving this year. I can't travel (too pregnant) and so we're going to DH's aunt's house in Brooklyn. I thought my in-laws would be coming up too, but MiL has a work travel conflict (she has to be on a plane to Guatemala on Friday morning) and so they've decided to opt-out. So it will just be the three of us with DH's aunt and uncle.
Thanksgiving is normally my favorite holiday of the year - I tend to go overboard with cooking and the more people the better because that means I can make MOAR FOOD. There's a million reasons why small is better this year, but 5 people at a Thanksgiving table where I've had no input into the menu is making me pretty down about the whole thing.

Because books.
I love the whole O Brother soundtrack. "I'll Fly Away" would be so lovely.
I also love June Carter Cash's version of "Will the Circle Be Unbroken," which I have on the Deadwood soundtrack.

Our Thanksgivings are always so weird. DH's family spent it travelling in Florida when he was growing up so he was never really attached to a traditional Turkey Day meal like I was. His parents are coming up for the holiday but he doesn't like turkey and doesn't want to prepare one. It's been two years since we had a turkey and I'm going to put my foot down and demands a turkey and trimmings. And by demand, I mean I'll cook them.
