Hit the Thanksgiving Day Appetite Seminar (mountain biking tradition since 1974), showered, deep fried a turkey, ate too much with the fam, drank too much with the fam, currently trying to rehydrate to reduce tomorrow's hangover and neffing on ATOT while doing so.

In my apartment, alone. The building is otherwise empty, save one person. It's quiet. Quiet for the first time in months. I'm just loving every minute of it. No loud walking/running/jumping upstairs, no loud irritating music, no yelling, no one talking.
Thanksgiving dinner consisted of dried cherries, pizza, chocolate chip cookies, and strawberry milk.

Has been quite a fine day.

I had thanksgiving dinner at my gf's house with her entire family, cousins, uncles, and all. Then I ended up playing some Korean card game and betting money with my gf's mother and her aunts. I left the table +$3 :) Afterwards, my gf and I went spend some time with my mom and eat her sweet potatoe pie. I finished the night off by reading a few chapters in my book before going to bed.

Worked, went home cooked some chili for my dinner then did the dishes. Had a fight with my wife. Hugged my kids and went to sleep. Another day in paradise.

Went to my aunt's house for lunch (that was hell), then to my other aunt's house for dinner (that was great) and watched Spiderman 2 and Santa Clause and the entire day wondered why the heck I'm 22 and haven't had a g/f yet. Not the best Thanksgiving ever for me.

Me and my 4 friends cooked dinner at my place. Well, we are 5 foreigners living in Washington DC, and all our families are overseas so we had to bond together as a family.

One of us did early morning shopping for materials.
I provided the facilities (my apartment and kitchen!) and helped overall
2 of us cooked and the last guy cleaned!

:)

Anyways, here are some pictures, the best we could come up with as 5 single guys that has never done a thanksgiving dinner before:

Slept in. Then laid out on the couch and watched football with my dog snuggled up on me. It was a good day.

Who needs family and food?

I waited in line at Best Buy all day in the rain so I could save $5 on DVDs. Thanksgiving dinner consisted of the the 5 month old beef jerky I happened to leave in my coat pocket.

Wasn't able to make it all the way back home so I spent it with my gf and a few friends. We pretty much ate A LOT and drank just as much.
