It's a shitty day to be a Turkey

I wonder if it's clear to anyone else that I'm the only one who is not at home and didn't have to take time packing and stuff because I'm the only one who's been updating my journal! Well except cousin Kate who usually does a pretty good job.
So I had a lovely morning reading the paper, having pop-tarts and milk, and watching the Macy's Thanksgiving day parade. When I went to Walmart last night I got cranberry sauce and a miniature pecan pie for this evening. I also have plans to watch a christmas movie cause it's acceptable now and to do a little bit of christmas decoration around our fireplace. And I got some mint chocolate candy canes to eat and decorate with. So I guess I'm set for the day.
The only pitfall in my day so far has been being forced to smash a stinkbug in my bedroom. By the way Linds it may possibly be sitting there for when you get back to do something with. Plleeeeeaaaaasssse.
My favorites of the parade so far (it's not over yet - and I didn't see the beginning!) was the Disney float (they had one kid and one adult for each character - like there was an 8 year old Hercules flexing his muscles and then right behind him was an adult Hercules flexing his -it was cute - and LeAnn Rimes sang), the charlie brown balloon cause it's a classic, Sesame Street was classical little kid's sesame street (I'm glad to see they'renot changing over time - it's still the same as when we watched it and I like things that stick with what works), Natasha Beddingfield, and that's it for now. The strangest may have been the people singing about King Tut and the cheerleaders who used pretend taxi's and just kept saying "Hey New York."
So my mom is supposed to be taking the web cam to the Peanick side for Thanksgiving and trying to hook her laptop up there. So we're supposed to rendezvouz at 4 my time. At first I was like yeah whatever but now I'm afraid I'm going to be really disappointed if it doesn't work so hopefully it does.
Well I'm off to call my dad. I hope that you all have a Happy Thanksgiving, remember all that you're thankful for, and travel safely. I'll be counting my blessings for you all today. I miss you girls.
