I love Thanksgiving. For a while there, my enjoyment of it was muted by a retail job that had me showing up to work at 3am on Black Friday. Rather than giving thanks, I was cursing the hoards of people who camped out to get the best deals and the flipped out when they were too late to get them. But those days are long gone and my ability to appreciate who and what I have around me has increased ten-fold.
It’s not hyperbole to say that I could go on for quite a while writing about all the things I’m thankful for, but I think we’re all better off getting back to our families or our leftovers or our football games.
