I spent of the day in the house tonight. We went to the mall to get a gift for my mom and to the movies but nothing big and it wasn't a big mess. I come home and decide to check the headlines how fucked up has this world become when 200 people trample a wal-mart employee to death as he was opening the doors for the 5am sale. This article also says that people didn't stop rushing into the store until police put tape up in front of the door. What is wrong with people???
I am so upset by this I had to share. Where is the holiday spirit? I mean is it really getting the hottest item or the cheapest? I thought it was giving someone something you know they will like. I happen to love this time of year but not b/c of the gifts I receive but b/c of the ones I give and the decorations. I want to go see Miracle on 34th street in Baltimore, for those in the area who haven't been I recommend it, its a couple of blocks in Baltimore that each house on the street decorate and not just a little but to the hills. It's so pretty.
As I type this there is a commercial for Christmas movies/specials which is another thing I love about this time of year that I thought I should share.
Well I am done now that I have shared my outrage in this world!!!

Happy Thanksgiving to all!!!
Thanksgiving 2008
Its not even noon yet and I already have my first wound. I got a call on Tuesday asking if I could make a chicken dish for the ex laws that I used to make when I was married. I cant say no to anyone so of course I said yes.
Well I am working on this dish which takes too much time which is why I don't make it very often. I had just read my friends blog about her oven going up in smoke so when I started to hear noises from my oven I was thinking oh shit I have to turn it off and head out to the ex laws now to cook. Blah.
Then I remembered there was a skillet thing in the oven so I looked and that was what the noises were from, awesome!!! I pull out the skillet with one hand a potato and knife in the other and my child no where to be found b/c I needed someplace to put this pan. The stove was and still is covered in the pots I need to cook this dish. I yell for the child who has disappeared into the bathroom (as of late this has been a regular occurrence, this will have to be saved for another blog) so the kid is no help. Fine I get that all situated and go back to peeling and cutting potatoes.
It comes time to wash a potato and what does my dumb ass do???? I burned my arm-my war wound! So I yelped b/c it hurt, the kid calls back, "now what?" Oh hell no child where do you get off saying now what? He has been playing with his figures and complaining that I won't let him turn off the parade, damn it this is going to be our tradition if I have to drag him into it kicking and screaming!!!
So I have my first war wound, in a couple of hours we will be off the ex laws, lets see if anything else fun happens while I am there and an updated post will be needed, cross your fingers for not!!
