Safe and Uneventful

This what you wished for our return trip. This is what we got. No rain, hardly any traffic, even half-way decent music on the radio.

The Spouse is at work, poor baby, The Child is parked in front of the TV and frankly, I could do with a nap. But instead I'm going to take a shower and go out foraging for groceries and a bottle of nouveau beaujolais because it is that time of year and there's nothing I like better than turkey leftovers with a glass of nouveau beaujolais. Of course, the bugger of going to someone else's house for Thanksgiving is that one doesn't have turkey left-overs, which is why one has to go to the supermarket and buy a turkey breast to roast so that there will be turkey leftovers. (Note to Dame Judi: Two more arguments for your superfantastic "Thanksgiving in Summer" plan. A) Everyone would increase their chances of having turkey leftovers on Thanksgiving proper owing to them preparing their own birds not to mention 2) the boon to the economy with a potential of 5 additional turkeys being purchased each season.)

So there you go. I love you all and hope you're still full to the eyeballs with sage and onion dressing. Pictures and full report later.

Oh, and because there are people who have to work today, I think we'll start All 80's Weekend a little early. That will give you something to look forward to, now won't it?

Welcome home!

I also have heard that there are people working today, and I'm quite sure they would like nothing more than an early start to all-80's-weekend.

Except maybe going home to take a nap, but I'm guessing they don't have that option.

Glad to hear your trip was uneventful.

I didn't get a nap either but I did finally get some sleep after our 'Black Friday' escapade...

Thanks, jp. Napping, that sounds good. But in solidarity, I won't take one either.

Oh Lord, Grish, The Wife hauled you out? Things to be thankful for...no desire EVER to shop on Black Friday. (Groceries don't count).
