Good morning, Live Journalers! I am currently snug as a bug in flannel sheets!

First of all, I must comment on the amusement I experienced when reading today's Doonesbury feed:


I am amused that Arnold is portrayed as a groping hand. I've always love the way Trudeau has symbolized political figures with objects.

Second, kellinator was asking what folks on her friends list were thankful for. I'm thankful for a lot of things.

I'm thankful for ...
-my friends on lj who lead interesting lives and give me something different to think about.
-my health: I don't get sick often, and I can move around freely
-my job and that I can support myself in a reasonably luxurious fashion.
-flannel sheets
-my two adorable cats, who took turns snuggling with me this morning, and then proceeded to groom each other before chasing each other about the house.
-that I have one loving parent, because having two would dramatically increase the complexity of my gift giving process.
-the beauty of nature, in any season
-moments of unintentional wit

Happy Thanksgiving Eve, folks!

Well, today hasn't been high speed productivity, but it will.

Five pie doughs will be constructed, three for tomorrow, two for future use.

An old buddy of mine needs a place to crash on Thanksgiving night, so I need to prep the guest room, which I've been using for storage....time to organize and divest myself of some crap.

I so far did manage to:
-read lj
-jog
-snuggle cats
-check the mail
-start the organizational process
-hang some fun posters!

Friday, the new tv cometh, so I must figure out what to do with the old tv. I want to sell it/give it away, so I'll be keeping my eye out for buddies who want it. I've got two guitar cases to find homes for, and a few cases of wine to move. Perhaps I can consolidate those (those were the days of Two Buck Chuck that haunt me).

These are two songs that I automatically cheer me up when I hear them. I usually like to have them on hand when a good cheering up is needed:


-The Muppets version of the coconut song (I posted it in my journal a few days ago)
-The Super Chicken theme song.
