thanksgiving

i feel so drained. i feel like it is 2 am, but it's only 9:30 pm. i really want a cigarette, but whatever. i gotta fight the temptation.

i have work tomorrow at 1, till close i assume. i really dont know. luckily closing is easy, because its basically nothing. i hope its not busy, but i know it will be, because it is black friday.

well obviously today is thanksgiving. that entailed me waking up early and going to church an hour early to "get the good seats". then afterwards, instead of being greeted by the typical fantastic reception with amazing punch and bite size treats, there was nothing. i was appalled.

then i saw a russian wolfhound. most gorgeous dog ive ever seen in my life. i will get one when i'm older.

fast forward to thanksgiving dinner. supposed to happen at 2 might i add. my parents, grandaddy and i arrive at our cousins, and we stand and talk for a while. then my cousins and my uncle secluded ourselves in the den and just talked and laughed for two and a half hours. two and a half hours. do the math. that means that we started eating at 4.30. two and a half hours later than we were supposed to eat. whatever though. the food was really good. channing ate the biggest turkey thigh ever.

cut to when my grandfather is leaving.
my grandfather ran out of oxygen in his tank nearing the end of the night. so when he was about to leave, my cousin gives him a hug, and then i go in for the handshake followed by a hug, and my grandfathers eyes open up wider than i could have ever imagined (they went crazy) and he jutted out his arm forcefully to give the HARDEST handshake ive ever felt the man give. then he said "im gonna tie your hair behind your head".

i should say this, my grandfather is a very calm old man. very nice and reserved. apparently off his oxygen he is crazy. by the way, i didnt just imagine his eyes going crazy, my cousin saw it too.

after my cousins and my grandfather left, it was just my parents, my cousins and i. then we finally went home.

since i've been home, i've just sat and wondered if i'm going to throw up. too much food no? i don't remember ever being this full.

"and now for something completely different":

i like someone, someone i don't want to like. its been bugging me. i have to get that off my chest. it sucks to talk to her sometimes.

should i cut my hair? i know some of you say no, some of you say yes. im very indecisive. i've had nightmares where my hair was cut, and i was running around waiting for my hair to grow back. i probably wont cut my hair. but tell me what you think

my computer battery only holds 40 minutes at a full charge now. i have to get a new battery.
