Thanksgiving Weekend 2011

You know how that goes, what with the friends, family, food, and drink in copious amounts.

And the parties at friends' houses, sleeping in really late, eating a lot of really good thanksgiving-type food, playing the Wii loudly when your mother tells you to be quiet because she has to work soon which is hard to do when you are just so good at wii tennis, almost going Black Friday shopping at midnight but choosing not to to watch a show that proved people in the 80s were collectively insane, walking 18 holes of golf, heading to the local townie bar with the other townies/friends, playing a lot of scrabble, meeting up with college friends, more Wii, regrettably going to the local casino, winning $100 dollars immediately at the local casino then losing it almost as quickly, staying at the casino way past last call/when your ride is there so you catch a cab home in a town where no one takes cabs so it ends up costing way more than expected but that might be from the stop at Wawa for buffalo wing flavored cheese buffs that you substitute for their lack of actual fried chicken, then waking up a few hours later for the trip back home/from home or is it parents' house while being the center of attention/source of entertainment on the ride by starting conversation with real thinkers like which song would you karaoke which for me would be shadowplay by joy division/the killers or airplanes by local natives because of the highpitchedness of some parts of those songs and where are you going to retire if you know 40 years ahead of the fact which you know for me is Knoxville, TN and what is your favorite city, etc.

Then you take a five hour nap because that's an exhausting weekend.
