stuffed like a bird.....which i ate

Hey everyone, hope you guys had an awesome turkey day/weekend. Right now im not sure what exactly to say due to the combination of overindulgence and holy jolly cheer. I know thanksgiving is supposed to be a time of thanks and whatnot so first im gonna say something cliche and hopefully then get to someting that you want to read......im thankful for my family/friends/i pod/unfaling sense of humor. Now that, that is out of the way, i want to try and delve into what thanksgiving is all about. Thanksgiving is time where families get together to talk about the most important things....like the football scores and hannukah. That's all thanksgiving seems to come down to in present day, overindulging ourselves in a large bird and discussing presents while rooting for our favorite teams. Not that this is a bad thing, but it seems like thanksgiving has really lost its meaning with all of the stupid modern gimmics. All I am saying is that we should not only try to put the thanks in thanksgiving by saying how much you are thankful for your dog snuggles, but by putting the giving back in thanksgiving and just try to do something that you wouldn't ordinarily do, and give. Now im not saying that you should sell your house and give all of your money to Mr.Shaly the homeless guy down the street, but how about dropping a line to someone who is lonely, like a grandparent. Or how about instead of spending time playing your brand new video game, spend some quality time with your dear old mum. Small things add up.
