Thanksgiving Two – Electric (Turkey) Boogaloo

The kids were at their dad’s yesterday so we visited with Jen’s mom and step father. Today the kids are with us, so we’re having a second Thanksgiving dinner. I have dubbed today Thanksgiving Two – Electric (Turkey) Boogaloo.

Jen, my beloved wife, is in the kitchen chopping onions to add to the stuffing. Chopping onions is a bad experience in the best of situations, but the onion she’s working with today is giving her eyes a really rough time. Stupid onion. Poor Jen.

NaSoAlMo – Thanksgiving Day Music

I had 10 songs in progress. Now that I have no more opportunities to record vocals between now and the end of the month I had to drop one of the songs. I felt kinda bad about it. Losing one of the songs ruins a gimmick I was working with. Each song on the NaSoAlMo project will be 10 beats per minute faster than the song before it. So if song #7 is dropped the gimmick doesn’t work, get it?

Since today is Thanksgiving and we did not cook, I decided to take a few minutes and put together an instrumental to take the place of the vocal-less song. It is pretty lame, but it works. This was written, recorded, and mixed all today.

Happy Thanksgiving

I would like to wish a happy Thanksgiving to everyone in the United States. We broke with tradition this year. The kids were with their father today so my wife and I went to a restaurant with her mother and step father. We went to a place called The Breakers, which is part of a hotel called Ashworth by the Sea (is that the right name?) in Hampton Beach, NH. The turkey dinner was excellent, the stuffing was excellent, the company was excellent, and the waves crashing into the beach across the street were the biggest and meanest I’ve ever seen on the East Coast. They looked down right Californian.

Tomorrow we will have the kids so we will have Thanksgiving Part II – Electric Turkey Boogaloo, which consists of another turkey dinner. Yum, babie. Yum.
