Holiday season
I've been trying to think of something to write concerning the upcoming holiday season. There was, of course, the terrible Thanksgiving-related sexual jokes that immediately popped into my head ("Can I stuff your turkey" "What's this white, sticky stuff on my sweet potatoes" etc.) but I thought that I would steer clear of all that. Instead, partially inspired by Shirtless and his blog entry, I've decided to make a short list of things that I am thankful for. The list is not too long, and certainly not complete, but it is what I am thinking about right now.
*I am thankful for my friends and family, who always seem to be there even when I'm not
*I am thankful for my wonderful wife-to-be who has every right and reason to leave me but doesn't
*I am thankful for my cat who, hopefully, will be the only living creature I am responsible for
*I am thankful for sugar and saturated fats for making me happy when I'm sad
*I am thankful for the ability to pick up my life in Ohio and move to NYC without any real difficulty
*I am thankful that I can watch every Giants game without having to pay for cable
*I am thankful for the internet, without which I would most definitely lose touch with half the people in my life and I wouldn't be able to vent publicly
*On a related note, I am thankful to Burb for getting me started on this whole blogging thing to begin with
*I am thankful for all of the musical artists and Apple for helping me make it through my workday when I need a boost
*I am thankful for President Bush, who is teaching America to think more clearly before you pull that lever in the voting booth
*I am thankful for the chance to write something that someone might actually want to read
*And I am thankful to you, dear reader, who check my blog with any regularity and have some interest in what I have to say
*Right now I really have to pee, so I am also thankful that we live in a country with running water and flushing toilets instead of dark holes in the ground with roaches crawling in and out of them.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!

Wonderful!
We don't use the rebus form nearly enough in the world today.
Have a great holiday!
And I am thankful for my "in" residing in NYC. Hopefully next year, I will make my first journey there.
I too, must now pee.
God Bless America.
