Dude, you shouldn't have
We are overwhelmed with a need to be trite. We hate that. But there's only so much bitter originality to go around. So here goes.
Things we are thankful for:
- The mentally disabled man who takes a walk up and down our street and says good morning every day. For the past two days he's stopped to shake Girl-E's hand and wish her a very happy Thanksgiving.
- The discovery of a full plate of homemade fudge in the office this morning, made by one of the male deans.
- The discovery five minutes later that same said dean has decreed everyone to go home at noon today.
- The fact that Girl-E has, for the 27th straight year, avoided the responsibility of having to make a turkey. She will instead labor over a cheese ball.
- The memory of last year's Turkey Day in Turkey, where Girl-E and The Dude introduced American Thanksgiving to a Turk, an Iranian, a Czech, four Canadians, two Australians and a French girl. Due to the ironic scarcity of turkey in Turkey, they ate 8 rotisserie chickens, but it was still fantastic.
- The musicians in the subway, who are about to be hit with a tragic ban on amplification.
- MAC Paints, newly discovered as the sturdiest of all eyeshadows.
- The friends, family and heroes without whom we would be nothing.
- All of you, who have graciously given five minutes of your precious holiday time to us.
Happy Thanksgiving, and the obligatory "Gobble gobble!"
