It’s that magical time of the year: Thanksgiving time! I bet someone was thinking I was referring to Christmas time, but they would be wrong. It amazes me how some people disrespect Thanksgiving by putting up Christmas decorations before Thanksgiving! How dare you sit and feast on Thanksgiving dinner with your Christmas decorations already up! It’s like going on a date with someone and having that someone spend the entire time talking about how hot somebody else is. When I see Christmas decorations up before Thanksgiving, I just want to take those decorations and throw them on the ground (I won’t be part of this system)! What other holiday solely revolves around getting your grub on? There is none. I can’t think of a holiday I enjoy more. Christmas? Christmas involves the giving and receiving of presents! Forget that mess. Am I a scrooge? Do I hate presents? No, I just don’t receive presents anymore; I kinda have a job and moneys (yes, money of different currencies!). I don’t accept presents from friends, I have no significant other, and I’d rather my mom and dad not spend any money on me. So no presents, and I don’t mind.
As with many major holidays, I go visit my parents. The only downside to visiting my parents is that my parents live 200+ miles away from me and 300+ miles away from each other. If I go home, I have to leave the comfort of my apartment and my TV, both of which are pretty nice. I can’t just visit only my mom or my dad; furthermore, visiting my dad only means I miss out on the tasty food my mom makes. I have to visit both in the course of a 9 days, and now that I work, I have to take time off of work to do so. Lots of driving will be done (flying won’t really save me that much time). I wished my parents lived closer to each other so I could be lazy. Oh well, at least I’ll have something to do in St. Louis this time: visit the new Micro Center.
