Thanksgiving etc.

Nothing much interesting to report on from the holiday. Dinner was over at Dad's on Thursday. He had turkey, potatoes, stuffing both inside the bird and out, Pennsylvania Dutch-style dried corn, and of course the jellied cranberry sauce. Oh, and I got tasked to make the green bean casserole. For dessert they made a blackberry-apple crumble, a recipe from England, and some custard that didn't really turn out like real custard. I spent most of the rest of the evening trying to help my stepmother burn photos to CDs and figure out why one of them was just plain unreadable afterwards.

Yesterday I pretty much just puttered around here all day. No way in hell am I going to shop at 5 in the morning, or any other time on Friday. There's nothing I could want that badly. Of course, I have plenty of things to do around here, mostly involving cleaning, none of which got accomplished. I know what the problem is, too. I turn on the TV and get started watching whatever movie is on that I've already seen a million times, and before I know it, the entire day is gone. Fortunately, it looks like there isn't much on today.
