The Brief Thanksgiving Rundown

1. A yellowjacket stung the shit out of me while I was walking to a cave on my Grandpa's property with some cousins.  It did not hamper my spelunking.
2. Only 4 desserts this year, way down from 2007's 14.
3. I found out my dad comes up with an excuse to leave early ahead of time when these family gatherings come along.  That must be where I get it from.
4. My cousin that's a nurse has the best stories in the family.  Most of them are quite disgusting.
5. Beard reception was overwhelmingly positive.  Looks like I'll be hanging on to it for another couple weeks at least.
6. Since it was nice outside, there were no post-dinner comas on the couch.  This is the first time in recorded history when this happened at a family gathering.
7. My uncle dug through a bag of trash for a reason that I can no longer recall.

That's about it.  It was very fun as far as Thanksgivings go.  Make me think Christmas will also be enjoyable this year.
