Happy ThanksGiving Folks

Goodness, it's Monday Thursday so soon! Someone needs to slow this train down cause I'm getting motion sickness!

So I've been debating what to post for this week. A photo? A story? A commentary on how Thanksgiving is the skipped holiday because there is no money to be made? I liked the idea of making it centered around this particular week.

We've got Thanksgiving, the forgotten holiday. And there's black Friday, the retail workers dreaded D-Day. Plenty to write right?

But it occurred to me, that there was a very simple thing which I could do that I feel like gets forgotten in modern American culture. Thinking about what I'm thankful for.

So, what am I thankful for this year?

I am thankful for Sam, who became my fiancee this year. (Really glad she said yes!)

I am thankful that her family liked me enough to both take me on an amazing road trip, and allow me to marry their daughter.

I am thankful that Jonathan helped me get a nice job at one of the better restaurants in the city.

I am thankful for my mother and Mike because in addition to buy me a giant box of nerds which has lasted me since last Christmas, they also got me the camera that I've been taking photographs with all year. The quality is outstanding.

I am thankful to be able to go to school. School sucks sometimes. Debt sucks always. But honestly I know how lucky I am.

I am thankful that I can finally start affording to get my teeth fixed up.


So I know that this list might seem pretty short, and it kinda is, but I'm only saying what I'm thankful for this year because if I did more I'd just end up sounding like a cheesy Thanksgiving special. And I'm only doing major events because it's how I'll remember this year. And only stuff pertaining to me, but don't for a second doubt that I'm not thankful for others happiness too! My mother's health. My fiancee's aquatic addiction (fish). My friend's relationship. Etc.

Have A Happy Thanksgiving and a Safe Black Friday,
Timothy
