Now back to work >.<

Above are two cool deviations of turkeys I found.

Things I am thankful for this year.

Family, they drive me crazy. Especially a certain someone, but I still love them. They put up with me too Thanks for Sterling and his crazy voices and hyper attitude. Thanks Bentley's fat head and cuteness. Thanks for Lexus and her adorable braces. Thanks for Reatta and her realizing werewolves are cooler than vampires (or should I say hotter? And I am not a Twilight fangirl, just a werewolf fan). Thanks for Mom and her encouragement and kicking me in the ... when I get feeling down. Thanks for Dad and his bad jokes and encouragement for me to do well in school.

Friends, I drive them crazy... or the other way around. The new and the old friends. All they have done for me. The ones who pop out of nowhere from a long absence and say hi. The ones getting married (which totally freaks me out but is cool too). The ones who pull me out of my house and drag me to stuff because they say so (you know who you are, there are two of you). The ones that embarrass me and the ones that do that on purpose. The friends that help me when I am down and the ones that I can help in return.

Milk that I can drink before it expires. Always a good thing and something I learned fast by living by my self.... opening rotten milk = yuck. And thank you Mom for giving me all the leftovers from the house.

My own place is good to be thankful for. Its cheap and simple... and the kitchen is yellow (ugh) but I can afford it for now and be close to work and school and save a little money. Might have to move back home if things get any tighter tho... dang car payments! But I have less than 2,000 to pay now (yes!).

My job. Couldn't ask for anything more for a job. There is just a certain satisfaction in teaching little sixth graders that hydrogen explodes, vandegraphs hurt but are fun, and rockets can blow eardrums. I love being so close to space stuff even though I might not be an astronaut anymore (if the chance opens I am so taking it!)

Tutors. I hate going to them because it makes me feel stupid but I am better off for it.

On another note, I experienced my first Black Friday. Did not wake up early enough. Went and bought fabric and patterns. Was in line for fabric cutting for two hours. Check out was lots faster. Watched the Grinch while waiting to get cut. Not bad.

And 2012 was a cool movie. Some science terms were off and I had to voice them. But otherwise I thought it was cool how they portrayed the end of the world. Saw Astro Boy too. Its for kids. And I saw Where the Wild Things Are... yes I cried... dang it.

Anyways, I hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving! I am still stuffed full of Turkey and pie. And pumpkin cheesecake. Yum so good!
