Time passes quickly and yet again we feel the chill in the air, the crunch of the leaves beneath our feet, the smell of a large bird cooking away in the oven and it now it already upon us to celebrate Thanksgiving. I swear I was just in a red white and blue bikini celebrating the 4th but whatever! What is the deal with getting older and time going by quicker? Is there some sort of space time continuum occurring in my world which is spinning by at dramatic leaps and yet everyone else’s is static? Is this an example of quantum entanglement? OK I might be getting a bit heady but really? Why is my life going by so quickly that it is practically giving me a headache? Alright, enough of that, let’s talk turkey…
So I am the most blessed and luckiest soul because I do not have to go and buy groceries and fight the crowds. I don’t have to cut up celery into little tiny weenie pieces to make stuffing. I don’t even have to open up a can of cranberries (which happen to be my favorite I don’t care call me white trash). I get to put on some casual clothes (meaning ones that have some give if you know what I mean) and pack up my dogs and my husband and drive 40 minutes to my fabulous in-laws where they do the whole thing. We are talking a traditional turkey, tons of gluten free items for Ryan including 2 gluten free desserts, vegan dishes for his sister, Vegetarian for my mother-in-law and her mother, and some Pabs Blue Ribbon for me and Pappy. We are a strange group and my husband’s parents really go the extra mile to make everyone happy in the family. All I have to do are a few dishes and they don’t even expect that. How’s that for taking it easy on Thanksgiving? I get to sit and watch the games and drink beer – shit I might as well be a man!
I was going to drive out to be with my sister but she is going to be with her ex today and they are both going over to my other sister’s home for a quiet meal where Judi’s husband will cook a delicious cornucopia for the four of them. I will be driving out at 8:00 AM for Vegas tomorrow morning to do a quick visit with my sister and then celebrating a dear friend’s 40th birthday out on the town. Then I shall be back on the road at 8:00 AM Saturday morning to get home in time to jump into hair and make-up and shoot a scene for pornfidelity.com.
So take today to connect with family and friends and allow some time for reflection. There is plenty for me to give thanks for this Thanksgiving: family, friends, good health, great food, liquor to survive family functions… The list goes on. But with that said, I am humbled and thankful for all the loving fans, the support of all of my sites and for the great employees and partners that I am blessed with and for all the good wishes from all of you for my sister and her battle with cancer. Bless you all and remember not to eat too much, it’s hard to have sex on a full belly!
