So, what did everyone do for Thanksgiving? Any amusing anecdotes? Funny relatives you care to complain about? Where you went, what you ate, etc!

I stayed at home, cleaned the house, decorated for Christmas, and ate dinner at like 6PM. It was quite tasty (turkey, yams, peas, and stuffing). Me, my wife, my mother in-law, and my grandmother in-law. It was the best Thanksgiving I have ever had (and I prayed over my food for the first time!)

A friend and I were the only two left on campus for the holiday so we got Hungry Man TV Dinners (Turkey and mashed potatoes) and also had a friend who was all alone in Georgia on speakerphone. We had a bottle of wine too. It was actually a really fun Thanksgiving.

Well, lets see.

I went down to Louisville to my aunt and uncle's house. We always meet at my grandmothers house for the holidays, but... Well... never mind.. Anyway.. when we got there we just relaxed a while. Then I played football with my brother, uncle, and cousins. The rest of the "family tree" showed up. We ate around three o'clock. To many dishes at the place to name, lol. Got fed up with some of the snobs there. One in particular, but I won't get into that. Lets just say I dislike her and she needs to be a little bit more nicer. I feel sorry for Jason, her son. He's like 14 or so. That's pretty much it, really.

I hope all of you had a good one

We went to South Carolina to see family on Thanksgiving. We had a good time at Charles's side of the family but when I got to my sisters, it is whole different thing. I had a horrible time at my sister's apartment. We left her apartment early and went over our friend's house. We came back this morning and so glad to be in my own home.

We had our adopted family over (aka family friends) and had a spectacular feast of turkey, potatos, corn pudding, gravy, stuffing...it goes on! And then we digested the rest of the evening.

And my dad and I got up at 6 this morning to go to Staples (200GB hard drive for $20!!). Went back to sleep at 8-ish and woke up again at 1
