so thanksgiving tomorrow and half of our nation is getting ready to make obscenely large meals for their obscenely large asses and then go Christmas shopping at Wal-Mart the next day with extra-large shopping carts gliding through the extra-large aisles.

i don�t actually agree with this holiday morally. it never really sat well with me. was it the intense indigestion at such an early age that put me off? my brother�s accident in Georgia a few years back? the fact that historically this holiday doesn�t make sense morally from the �savage native American� showing gratefulness for them there pilgrim�s hospitality?

the Thanksgiving day enactment in the movie �The Adam�s Family� when Christina Rici comes to scalp the blond-haired blue-eyed buck-toothed pilgrim princess pretty much rules.

i thought i was alone in this sentiment. until today. i guess our new co-worker is a Cherokee which pretty much rules and when she overheard my disdain for the holiday and why she came out to applaud me � and quite frankly i applaud her. her family doesn�t celebrate the holiday and in fact she�s going home for her aunt�s wedding. i used to think she was just a pretty southern bell, in the dark-haired/eyed way.
