The holidays are in full effect, so tell us: What's your favorite holiday song? Bonus points if you share it with us!

Even though I am goyim, I love Adam Sandler's Hanukkah song.

Good:

I got to work out at 24 Hour Fitness 3 times while I was at my parents house last week/weekend.

Lots of good food and family on Thanksgiving.

I got to talk to my friend Tom yesterday.

San Diego got rain!For the first time in a long time.

Getting sucked into watching 80's videos on Youtube(oh,the nostalgia!)

[what does it say about the us?]

That:

a)We totally had the chance to catch Osama Bin Laden Douchebag 8 years ago and we didn't.

b)People can gatecrash parties at the White House so easily. Saying that the Secret Service was slacking is an understatement. :P

My mom and dad and aunt and I picked my niece up from the airport(she spent Thanksgiving with my brother and his wife and my nephew, and her Oklahoma grandparents).We went to El Indio(the second time after picking someone up from the airport!) for lunch. Then we took my niece back to USD where she goes to college and got to see her dorm.

I came home early but I felt a little bad because my parents were coming up to Oceanside *again*(they were going to a birthday party at a bowling alley!) .It's not like they could have brought me when they were coming up here for the party because they were giving some friends of theirs a ride and they didn't have enough room in their car,

Today I learned:What a USD dorm looks like(pretty small ....but you'd be surprised how much can fit in there even so!)

Today I took pleasure in:Having a very very very relaxed day!

If you get a comment from either jethro bodine or ken,delete them and have nothing to do with them. They are Vox's resident trolls. They may *act* friendly,but they have been terrorising anyone who disagrees with them(especially when it comes to gay marriage, and race issues)And at least one of them has said that he would kill President Obama if he were given the chance.

Usually I don't play the "I've been here longer than you" card, but I have been blogging with Vox since August of 2006 and couldn't really complain all that much. Then,the 2008 election happened and we all know who won :)All of a sudden there were a ton of new blogs by people who were upset(that's putting it mildly!)by who won.

The block function and the ability to screen posts is there for a reason. You can avoid a lot less hassle from people like Jethro Bodine and Ken(who, I will reiterate, are to be avoided at all cost) if you do.

Odds and ends from the past few days:

*Finally got to watch this week's episode of Glee.Loveloveloved it!

*Yesterday, I stepped on an almond(my mom had a bowl of them sitting out so the kids could crack them)that had fallen on the floor.It cracked when I stepped on it and I yelled out "Mazel Tov!". lol.

*Wednesday night I went to see 2012. It was...not bad,actually!I was expecting it to be a bit,well, you know, crap. It wasn't.

*Wednesday I also went to my dad's gym-24 Hour Fitness. He had a guest pass-several,actually-so I went and got a pre-Thanksgiving workout which was great.I am going to go today, too!

*The story about the kid with Asperger's living on the subway is amazing to me. Apparently the kid felt very comfortable in the subway which is why he went there. I would think(although it seems to vary from Aspie-a person with Asperger's)to Aspie) that he would not want to be in a place with a lot of people.That's always been one of my issues.

*The other interesting story was the couple sneaking into the White House.Apparently the couple in question is on Real Housewives of Washington D.C. which is filming right now. They should be glad that they didn't do it when BusHole was president-he probably definitely would have sent them to Guantanamo Bay :P

[full of thanksgiving cheer, erm dinner]

Best.Thanksgiving dinner.Ever. It was all SO good. It'll be even better tomorrow! My pecan pie was especially delicious and I got a lot of compliments on my dishes(cranberry relish, green bean casserole, pecan pie)

[you know what i don't get?oyster stuffing.]

From the turkey and stuffing to all of the fixin's... Who's cooking your Thanksgiving dinner this year? What dish are you most looking forward to?

All of it.There isn't a thing that I don't like. Though.. *points to subject line*. That's a Southern thing I guess, though people in New England claim *they* came up with it first. Our family doesn't make oyster stuffing(thank goodness!). IMO that's botulism waiting to happen if you don't eat it quick enough. You'll be sicker than you've ever been in your life,but hey!No more wrinkles!

I am making cranberry relish,green bean casserole, and pecan pie(my pecan pie is the stuff of legend! :P)
