I Survived Thanksgiving!

Well, my relatives have just now departed, and my house is all my own again... The whole Thanksgiving thing did seem to go reasonably well, except for the fact that either my oven wasn't getting hot enough or the turkey was more frozen than we thought it was or (most likely) some combination of both, resulting in the damned bird taking a staggering seven hours to cook. Thank goodness we started it early! The end results were good, though, and I now have more leftovers than I have any remote hope of consuming.



I also have the early Christmas present my mother brought me: a new TV! Note that I didn't exactly ask for a new TV. When she asked me what I wanted for Christmas, what I said was "Actually, I need to buy a new TV, so if you wanna just give me some cash to put towards it, that would be great." But she found a great deal on a 27" TV, apparently, so it made the trip out with her. I'm not complaining! Although it does turn out that the darned thing's just a smidge too big to fit into my entertainment center, so I now have to go and get a new one (er, entertainment center, that is, not TV), which is going to mean rearranging my living room all over again. Nothing is ever easy...
