Maybe I'll write about despite the fact that my sister has hosted Thanksgiving for the past eighteen years my mom has called me at least four times in the past week or so to ask me if we'll be at my house or my sister's for Thanksgiving.
Or I could write about my six year old son and his current obsession with Mad Libs. Every adjective is either farty or stinky and every noun is either New York or Kleenex.
I am so looking forward to Thanksgiving. I finished up my grocery shopping today and wrote out a schedule for the next three days of what I will cook and when. It might just be my favorite holiday and this is perhaps my favorite ABC Special of all time. Remember the days before DVRs and VCRs and it really was special when Charlie Brown was on TV?
I was going to write a post titled Words With Husbands. My husband and I used to play a lot of card games in our pre-kid days. He always won. Always. No matter what game we played, my wins were rare. The only games I can ever beat him at are air hockey, occasionally bowling and now Words With Friends. I've won four games in a row and it's killing him.
I recently found the blog Letters of Note, which contains all kinds of letters from all kinds of folks. The one below is from Roald Dahl, written to a girl who was inspired by The BFG to send him one of her dreams in a bottle. Isn't it lovely?

Wireless printers are the bane of my existence. Not that I'm smiling, but am glad it happens to someone else and not just me!
Black tights and gray tights or black AND gray? Like striped? LOVE IT!!!
Happy Thanksgiving! (It's my favorite holiday too!)
That letter is lovely. I hope that your Thanksgiving was lovely as well!
Black and grey striped, or like, one pair of each? These are the things I think about.
Hope your Thanksgiving (at your house, right?) was fantastic! xo
MadLibs. We had a weekend full of booty, buttocks, and poop. Lots and lots of poop. Oh, and toilet bowls. Toilet bowls was also heavily used.
