Gobble Gobble.
I proved worthy of the family name today, when I managed to call my Dad on the day before his birthday, rather on his actual birthday. This is after last year, when he appologized for calling me on the 11th, which he thought was the day after my birthday (when in fact it was two days after). In conclusion: if I ever forget your birthday, I really don't mean anything by it. It's just the way I am.
The past few days have been absolutely beautiful. It makes me wish that the rest of fall could be this way but, alas, I realize that there isn't much time left before the temperature starts to dip. I may be able to barbeque in December, but tube floating is something else altogether.
Job-wise, pounding the electronic pavement seems to be paying off. It's too soon to say, but I may be getting interviews based on the e-mails that I sent out earlier. I have another 10-15 places to contact, but I'm going to wait until a day or two after Thanksgiving before I send out the next batch.
I'm out of town for the next couple of days, but I do have a question that I'm curious about: what's your favorite part of Thanksgiving, and why?

I'm anti-Thanksgiving. I don't like turkey, and I hate family things. So I'll be staying in Kingston.
I think having the chance to take some down time is key. I won't lie - I like the family stuff, and I like the food - but it's having the chance to be lazy, read a book, and take it easy that I really enjoy.
Granted, that's what I do most of the day, regardless. But on Thanksgiving, everyone else is doing it as well, so I don't feel like quite as much of a bum.
The fellowship and pumpkin pie.
And do you know where Channing has disappeared to?
We went through three full pumpkin pies at Andrea's this weekend. Of course, we spread them over the full weekend.
As far as I know, Channing is now in Toronto, looking for work. I don't think he's had much luck yet, and I'm pretty sure he's not spending that much time on the internet. Either that, or he's given up blogging. But I'll ask him, next time I see him online.
