So what relatives are you stuck spending the day with?

My parents and I were invited to my aunt's house with the rest of my dad's side. My mom and I tend to not like going because my dad's side tends to treat my mom and me differently since we're another race.

I, however, will be spending Thanksgiving in Arizona with Zoso's family. This should be a better change of pace.

In the past, we used to go to my mom's sister's house as well to eat with my mom's side of the family and have non-traditional Thanksgiving fare, but she and my cousins are going to Las Vegas.

So what are you guys doing?

I apparently was invited to thanksgiving dinner with someone, but I can't remember who! I don't even remember what I did last year!

I'll be happy to tag along with anyone! Or, you could come here!

You're working on Thanksgiving Tamarin? O_o They at least cut the hours for the day or something for ya, didn't they?

Well...My Aunt Paula's is the ideal place to have Thanksgiving. My immediate family alone if ginormous...and then there's the other people. Her home and the property around it is REALLY big...and pretty too. But not everyone can get to there this year. Besides...the memories from last Thanksgiving...**shudders**

So..my grammy and I are going up to my Aunt Mary's. I get to see my two cousins who I used to be close to, but now it's like we don't know each other. I don't know who else is gonna be there, but my Uncle Bob kicks ass, so it'll still be fun.

Yeah, I only work three hours, and holiday pay makes it pretty much worth four and a half hours of work.

But honestly, I think I'd have rather worked a full six hours like I usually do. Besides the extra money, there's also the fact that we're not really doing anything here this year anyway.

well I'm SUPPOSED to go to Crestview... so I gotta stay until tomorrow. Parents are fighting about it as usual. V_V; It's getting annoying. Anyway, I hope I still get to see my granddad. He's the one who suffered through having doctors telling him he had cancer. Which he doesn't. It was just a freaking sist.

Come to think of it, I worked last Thanksgiving. And, I think the last two Thanksgivings before that. I think this will be the first Thanksgiving since I started working where I won't be working...

I'm going to attempt getting up early, I always seem to sleep in far past the parade(though last year I was indeed in the thanksgiving parade for marching band). If I manage that, I'll try to watch the entire thing - something I have never been able to do. Later on I'll be going to my aunt's house with my stepdad's side of the family and play ping pong all night. Oh, and the traditional food, and I'll watch part of the football game.

I get to go to my grandmas house. Yay... awkward! I heart the holidays. Usually my uncle goes out to buy McDonalds. My aunt yells at something. My cousins can't stop laughing. My brother has to work, my sister is with a friend, my moms hover around and tell me to sit up straight. My sweater is crappy and itchy, nothing is cozy, my dad is eating shitty microwaved canned ham and I wish I would be able to eat with him instead of the other people, even if it requires giving up a great meal... but eh. At least there's a parade.

As far as I know, nothing. My parents had a bit of a falling out so doesn't seem like we are going anywhere. My mom and I might just grab already made dinner somewhere and sit down and pay for a few movies on the sattlelite. However, I do have my pumking pie, so all is not lost (sadly I didn't get a chance to make one from scratch).

I go to my grandmother's house every year. This year isn't a change, still going to my grandmother's house. Most of my family will be there. My cousin Lee and I will probably meet up, and talk about video games, game systems, and cheat codes.

Hmm, well at least you have the day off, Zabuza. Nice change of pace, even if you have nothing to do.

I'm going over to my mum's house, where I think my sister and her family will be, then my uncle Freddy. My other sis and her fiance will be arriving late. I'm dragging my poor fiance with me.

Then going over to his parents house for a little. Yay.

It wasn't so bad at my brother's house. I hijacked my nephews PS2 for awhile and was playing the Sims game, then I played pool with him and then my niece... I handed her ass to her, it was like I was channeling a pro player suddenly.

Eris loves me.

I just wish my boyfriend could have been there, it would have been very entertaining to say the least... but he was with his family. I was invited to join them, but mom wouldn't let me get out of family time. Oh well, maybe next year.

Ima go ahead and post what I DID on thanksgiving day....

The day started out with me playing Age of Empires II on my mum's computer. She got up I believe 2 hours before I started playing. She then told me we have to get ready to go over to my aunts house because everyone on my mom's side wants to have thanksgiving there. Well, when I got there, all of my cousins were playing on the XBOX360 that my uncle got and I was stuck preparing for the meal. No one talked to me, no one asked me how I was doing, nothing. They were all either talking about some football game that was on FOX, or the cousins were playing on the Gaybox360. Hell, even my uncle told me that I was not allowed to play, but she let my sister play. But it was all good, I really dont like microsoft anyway.

During dinner I tried making conversation with my nanny, but once again she is all hell-bent on me being a male (im bi-gender). She really diddnt even talk to me and I cant believe she hates me for having a better life than my retarded sister. Everyone on my mom's side hates me for that retarded reason, because everyone wanted me to be a smart little girl.

I did however got the last laugh, I shoved my accpetance letters in their face on two colleges that im planning on going to. They were all silent and saying "Well dont you have a car? A job?" and they look at my sisterDropped out, no GED, no job, and absolutely no life.) and yet they are all attached to her? meh, im not too worried about it.

My mom felt bad that no one talked to me when I prepared dinner, cleaned house, and tried to make conversation with everyone. Hell, it was like I was'nt even there. Oh well, I did eat alot and still managed to have a good time.
