We have cancelled the whole weekend’s plans. No movie today. No DRT tomorrow.

This sucks out loud, but my sweet Jen is doing an amazing job taking care of her big baby of a husband. I love her so much.

Patches takes a bath… In the bathroom! She’s the smartest kitty ever! Next she’ll be peeing in the toilet!

I’m sick but kitty still loves me.

I don’t know exactly what it was. There were a number of circumstances working together to make it happen…

Was it the last minute nature of the thing? Was it a recipe that Jen decided to try out this morning?

I don’t know. What I do know, is that Jen made the best turkey I’ve ever had. Bar none, hands down, that was the best turkey dinner I’ve ever had. I’m not saying that because Jen put together a full Thanksgiving dinner with less than one day’s preparation and I want to make her feel good for doing so much for me. I’m not saying it just to be nice, or any crap like that. I’m saying it because it is the plain, simple truth.

The turkey that my beloved wife Jennifer cooked today was the best tasting turkey I’ve ever had.

We say down at the table, wished each other a happy Thanksgiving, and then we each took a bite of turkey. We both made yummy/delicious sounds and said it was the best turkey we’ve ever had. It was awesome turkey. Just… Just… Wow, was that good turkey!

Thank you, Jen. On top of all of the wonderful things you do for me on a daily basis, you went above and beyond to give my fat, sick, dumb ass a perfect Thanksgiving.

Thank you, my Jenny. I love you so much.

My phone has been acting strange today. I took the iOS4.2 update the other day but I don’t think that’s related to all of it.

First, and this has nothing to do with the iPhone itself, but it’s still slightly odd, I got three wrong numbers in a 60 second span. Really. The first one had a caller ID that was 8 numbers. The second had a different caller ID that was 12 numbers. The third was blocked. I answered the second one and it was just some numb-brain saying, “hello?” a few times. Strange.

The next strange iPhone thing probably is related to the recent update. I turned on the iPod function and there was nothing there. I know there’s music there though, as I keep it filled almost to the rim with music. I plugged into my desktop and the files showed up in iTunes, but still nothing in the phone itself. I dragged in a playlist (Palmdale. Both EPs), waited for it to load in, and then checked the phone again. Everything was there. Strange.

Anyone else out there in apple fandom/iPhone using land have any weird stuff happen after installing the latest update? Just curious.

Oh, and Happy Thanksgiving.

Yes it happened. Right on queue my bad sore throat became a bad cold. No family Thanksgiving for me.

My wife anticipated this and has begun preparing the Thanksgiving dinner she bought yesterday.

My wife is amazing. Pure and simple.

To ease the pain I was searching through the channels and discovered James Bond Thunderball staring Sir Sean Connery on Syfy.

Thanks, Syfy.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

The kids are watching Wizards of Waverley place and they just name dropped J Geils.

While sitting in awe I noticed that the episode was directed by Fred Savage.

Wow.

Crazy.

Well I knew it was going to happen, but I’m still pretty pissed off.

I have the bug that laid out Jen and my step daughter.
Day 1: Sore throat
Day 2: Bad sore throat and a little congestion
Day 3-5: Seriously nasty cold.

I am on day two. Right on schedule. My throat is so sore it hurts to breathe.

I am going to miss my family’s Thanksgiving tomorrow. I am seriously bummed out. Jen is already proving herself a super hero by making last minute alternate plans. She’s getting a small turkey that we can have at home tomorrow while I burn through box after box of tissues. She really is an angel. She’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me. If I haven’t stated it publicly recently, allow me to state it now: I love my wife. More than I ever thought I could ever love anything or anyone. I love Jen that much.

So if you need me tomorrow you’ll find me on the couch. Maybe I’ll stop on the way home tonight and pick up the two Harry Potter movies that are some how mysteriously missing from our collection and Jen and I can celebrate one of my favorite holidays by watching them all in order.

I’ve been so looking forward to the upcoming Thanksgiving, four day weekend. It’s been like a beacon of hope in dark times.

Two weeks ago, Jen had a really bad cold. It started with a sore throat.

The Thanksgiving weekend is, to me, a break from the hectic craziness that work has become recently. It’s like a vacation to a tropical island… metaphorically speaking.

Last week my step daughter had a really bad cold. It started with a sore throat.

We are planning a big Thanksgiving, a viewing of the new Harry Potter, a trip to visit the graves of my grandparents and some of my aunts and uncles. Generally speaking, it’s just going to be a treasure trove of fun things to do with my family.

I woke up with a sore throat today.

Shite.

She meows like crazy when she’s hungry. It sometimes sounds like a police siren
