Happy Throgsgrafen!!
As per family tradition, I was roused out of bed a few minutes before the Official Beginning of the Christmas Season (i.e. Santa Claus closing the Macy's Parade.) The smells, which I can barely detect around my angry sinuses, tell me that Ole Tom is nearing his perfect roasted completion. As per tradition, there was snitched stuffing for the traditional Thanksgiving breakfast, and as per tradition, no one will get dressed, for the four of us eat around the table but once a year, and eat in our pajamas. My mom is on the phone with Tante Joan now for her Traditional Post-Parade Howdy-Santy Claus Happy Thanksgivin' call, for Tante Joan and Don traditionally have their Thanksgiving with Don's family. I do so love tradition. Last Thanksgiving we were the four of us, plus Erica, having a holiday in London, and on the day we walked around in the rain and I sang "All Good Gifts" from Godspell over and over as a tribute to the holiday. But this year, back to tradition. Wooooo hoo, I want me some damn turkey already! |
