Let’s Have Fun This Thanksgiving, Shall We?
I am not hosting Thanksgiving this year. Know what that means? It means it’s going to be awesome is what that means! I am going to eat, drink, and probably talk too much. I am going to be thankful for all the insanity. And I’m going to write it all down. The good, the bad, the hurtful and rude. Be warned.
Won’t you join me? I’m issuing a challenge–to make your Thanksgiving way more funner. This year, collect quotes. Whenever Uncle Fred or Auntie Annie spit out a racial slur, when your parents pick at your lack of ambition or your excess forearm flesh, when your inlaws inquire as to your status with child or without–write it down. Share them here in the comments to prove that every family is crazy, or just to make someone else feel better that yes, your life really is worse than theirs. Or funnier. You get to decide.
Happy Thanksgiving!

I’m totally there. But I reserve the rights of first refusal to anything my mother says. “Hells bells and great small fish” is just the tip of the iceberg. My family talks like they’re inventing the language as they go along.
oh I’ll have tons for you – I have 4 Thanksgivings to attend!
I’m waiting, people. I’m waiting. Personally, I was thanked – publicly and communally with my sisters-in-law – for producing grandchildren. So useful am I.
