Holiday plans? Yes, I got 'em. I'll be eating this Thanksgiving, just like last year. Eating. Fancy, no?
But this year will be different: yes, I still plan to wear the traditional pajamas, and yes, I'll almost definitely be carbing myself a few new chins; but this year, for the first time, my aunt (known as Tante Joan) will be joining us. She usually goes to Thanksgiving at my uncle's family's house, but since he and TJ have split up, and she sold the house, there's nothing but for her to come spend the day in this ramshackle, dusty book-storage warehouse! And then, we discovered that Gina would be spending her Thanksgiving in the Manor watching tv with the cats, so she's coming over too! And then, we discovered that Andrew's family isn't doing anything for Thanksgiving, so before he goes to dine on vegetarian delights with his girlfriend's family, he'll be here, stuffing himself with birdflesh! Seven people sharing a meal in this apartment. Couldn't you just--? Isn't it just the--? Wowie-zowie! And we're eating early-early-early, because at 2 or 3, my parents have to leave for the airport and their trip to Vienna. Sheesh. |
