happy turkey day, everyone

[ulysses]

I'm off tonight for the biennial gathering, not with Al Franken, but with my conservative in-laws.

These are the folks who sang "Happy Birthday" to Jesus at Christmas - over a cake (didn't have 2k candles, though) - the year before we got married.

If I'm not back tomorrow night, send a search party to Eatonton...

note: this is the extended family. Ms Uly's immediate family is conservative, but not completely whacked. Her mom practically took Terwilliger home with her earlier this year.

1. Yikes!

Have a truly spiff holiday. Enjoy the pie.

3. there's generally a lot of good food.

I usually just eat and take mental notes. They've all long since decided that I'm quite odd. :D

2. i hope they can at least cook well...

keeps lots of food in your mouth at all times :-)

Happy Turkey Day to you too, Ulysses! And the Mrs. too.

4. I do.

I'll probably take school stuff to work on.

and the same to you and yours, 'mama!

5. Hang in there...you can do it.

I'm off in a bit to spend time with my 93 year old GOP mother-in-law who thinks GW is (her word) "a boob"! I love that woman. My sister-in-law and I only disagree over the Democratic candidate but at least she's open-minded.

Have a great day!

6. Have strength, ulysses

and courage. Beware of those that would lead you astray. Plug your ears.

7. no fear of being led astray.

I just wait for a good story (like the Jesus thing) to happen, and otherwise practice patience. :)

11. You're armed with the truth!

Use it! Who knows, you just might win us a new Democrat!

12. I think you should come down with something contagious

so you can bail on the family thing and go have dinner with CatWoman!

13. Hang in there, John!

At least you will have some funny stories for us! Here's to you and Mrs. Uly from me and John :toast: Cheers!

14. Have a great turkey day!

Time with family are the moments to treasure. My dad just got out of the hospital last week and I know we're glad to have him home.

About that last statement. Does it say more about your wife's mom or Terwilliger? Hmm...

15. Happy Thanksgiving to you, Mrs. Uly and Mr. Kitty!

(And if you deep-fry your bird, change the oil before you try making donuts the next morning... :)
