Today I hosted the Third Annual Grace Covenant Church Career Class Orphan Thanksgiving Dinner.
It was a small crowd since a lot of the class is in Israel or Mexico right now. We had a lot of food though, and all of us are tired and sleepy from having eaten too much. Now we’re just laying around watching TV. It’s cold outside, and there’s a fire in the fireplace.
It has been a great Thanksgiving.

I’m really looking forward to Thanksgiving. It has been a rough semester for me and I’m badly in need of a break. A four-day weekend should help, at least a little. I’ve been so out of sorts that I can’t create anything interesting, and half the time I can’t remember what I JUST read for my literature class.
Anyway, I only have to get through three odd days at work this week before the long weekend. Monday has me participating in two interviews (I’m on an interview committee for a position that we need to fill, and our two candidates are coming in tomorrow), going to class, then leaving early to go to the dentist for my regular visit, and then a trip to see my counselor, followed by some exercising and a lot of reading. Tuesday is a nine hour day with no lunch break, and Wednesday I’ve got a long lunch to spend some time with some good friends, since almost no one will be around, anticipating the holiday.
Thursday is Thanksgiving, which I will spend with my boyfriend and two guy friends. It will be a small meal. I’m even thinking of making cornish game hens instead of a turkey. We’ll see. I’ve never actually cooked either one on my own so either way it should be an adventure.
I will spend either Friday or Saturday vegging out, and the other day writing two papers so I can turn off my brain without any repercussions.
Sorry that’s all I’ve got to discuss. With all my brain power going toward remembering what I read for school, there’s not much energy left to write anything of great interest here.
But at least I’ve managed to post every day so far, which is quite a feat of strength in and of itself.
