Well, I had a good Turkeyday. My girlfriend and I flew down to Sacramento to visit my family in Chico and Yuba City. I got to see my mom's wine shop all decorated for the holidays. Unfortunately I was at the shop on Buy Nothing Day, so I wasn't able to buy any wine. Oh well. Thanksgiving dinner was good, but we only had one pie! Oh, the humanity. My girlfriend was horrified. Her family is used to haveing a pie:person ration of about 1.5:1. Thats right one and a half pies per person! Then I went to Yuba City and visited my dad, my step-mom, kid sister and baby brother. Aarin (my sister) is nearly 7 years old and is just as fun as can be to see. Alex (my brother) just turned 1 and while he is cute, he cries a lot. I am definately not quite ready to have kids. On with the show:
Things I Like:
-Turkey, mayonaise, cranberry sauce and salt sandwiches (don't discount the heavy usage of salt, it MAKES the sandwich)
-iPods on a plane ride
-Volunteering to get bumped from my return flight (got a free ticket anywhere Alaskan flies [including Mexico] and they put me up in a hotel!)
Things I don't like so much:
-Steel-toed shoes at Airport security
-Waking up at 3:30 am to catch my flight
-Not having turkey leftovers :(
