Part of me is tempted to start making a list (and checking it twice) of a bunch of things I’m thankful for this year, but why say it today in particular? Shouldn’t I be thankful for those things all the time? Except maybe gluttony—spending a few hours fattening myself up with extended family doesn’t happen very often. So let everyone else say “I’m thankful for…” and I’ll say something more like “I’ll try to appreciate on a more consistent basis…”
As for all of you out there who don’t celebrate Thanksgiving… just because I like to be inconsistent and keep people on their toes, I’m thankful that you guys are around to read this. So happy Thanksgiving to all (and to all a good night)!
