Squaxin Island tribal casino buffet outdid itself today with serious meat and dessert options. Good mashed potatoes, sad looking brussel sprouts, sweet potatoes all done up with stuff I don't like (brown sugar/marshmallows/etc). Hung out in the hotel lobby knitting while Mr. Jaq and his mom lost $$. Glad to be home again. Dinner was cheese + crackers.

e does F want thanksgiving dinner or does he not care?
― jergins, Friday, 27 November 2009 04:54 (fourteen years ago) link
he loves it. we are having our thanksgiving in four hours. we usually do it on the friday so we're in synch with the states. he snuck home at lunch so he can have a long weekend. i just made stuffing while f. prepped the turkey and harry lay under the christmas tree, he loves it down there. we called f.'s family and now f. is taking a nap<3
― estela, Friday, 27 November 2009 04:59 (fourteen years ago) link

― estela, Friday, 27 November 2009 05:05 (fourteen years ago) link
we're having turkey, stuffing, gravy, garlic mashed potatoes, rocket lemon salad, steamed yellow baby squash and sugar snap peas, and pumpkin pie.
― estela, Friday, 27 November 2009 05:13 (fourteen years ago) link

― jergins, Friday, 27 November 2009 22:11 (fourteen years ago) link

― estela, Friday, 27 November 2009 22:17 (fourteen years ago) link
ok see now that's enough of a reason to rearrange my plans
― jergins, Friday, 27 November 2009 22:26 (fourteen years ago) link
yay!
― estela, Friday, 27 November 2009 22:36 (fourteen years ago) link
i wish i secreted a pie and brought it back here
― spite n ease (harbl), Saturday, 28 November 2009 02:36 (fourteen years ago) link
two ways to read that!
― jergins, Saturday, 28 November 2009 02:44 (fourteen years ago) link
if harbl could secrete pies i'd be on the next flight to baltimore, ready to get on bended knee
― jergins, Saturday, 28 November 2009 07:10 (fourteen years ago) link

― jergins, Saturday, 28 November 2009 07:21 (fourteen years ago) link
i just don't think i'd want to eat anything secreted, pie or otherwise.
― tehresa, Saturday, 28 November 2009 07:33 (fourteen years ago) link
a 24k engagement ring perhaps?
― jergins, Saturday, 28 November 2009 07:35 (fourteen years ago) link
i certainly would not eat that
― tehresa, Saturday, 28 November 2009 07:36 (fourteen years ago) link
why would you eat a ring, that'd be silly!
who says u have to eat it ; )
― spite n ease (harbl), Saturday, 28 November 2009 12:24 (fourteen years ago) link
i dunno i like to watch crappy cable shows about prison and i've seen a couple about smuggling stuff and the guards always use the word "secreted" when an inmate secrets something inside his person. i always liked how it had two possible meanings if you read it.

happy thanksgiving!! (belatedly)
<3
spent ours in chicago with the whanau. food was terrible. gah i have a terrible dislike of t-giving food except for the fake mashed potatoes my sis in law made. but seriously: sweet potatoes with marshmallows and cinnamon?? wtf is that about.
on the upside:got close to $500 in gift cards at our wedding shower (which was supposed to be a bridal shower but i insisted that jordan be allowed to come so he was the only guy there)got a SUPER FLASH GREEN IPOD for an early bday present from my lovely inlaws

oh and we arrived home today to find my greencard in the letterbox
― smoove operator, Wednesday, 2 December 2009 00:13 (fourteen years ago) link
they used the same photo on my GC that is on my work permit and i - no joke - look like a serial killer.
maybe i will post pics of it to the WD'NTYLL thread
― smoove operator, Wednesday, 2 December 2009 00:14 (fourteen years ago) link
congrats on getting that green card!
― jaq, Wednesday, 2 December 2009 00:45 (fourteen years ago) link
can't believe they'd give you a green card what with the thanksgiving food hate. wasn't that one of the questions in ur interview???
― jergins, Wednesday, 2 December 2009 03:32 (fourteen years ago) link
i heard of some green card interviews where they make sure you finish all the potatoes, all the stuffing, even check under your plate and in your pockets. strict but important imo
― jergins, Wednesday, 2 December 2009 03:39 (fourteen years ago) link
even the orange jello w/ shredded carrot salad? That's harsh.
― jaq, Wednesday, 2 December 2009 03:46 (fourteen years ago) link
once between lines in the pledge of allegiance i had to take bites of canned cranberrie sauce. it was gross but worth it in the end

sorry, t
― spite n ease (harbl), Friday, 25 November 2016 02:48 (seven years ago) link
i legitimately hate holidays. i want to quit. it's like you can't even do it though. easier to tell everyone you know and your family that you have some kind of shameful disease than to say you don't want to do thanksgiving or christmas. i just want every day to be the same non-holiday. is that so much to ask?
― spite n ease (harbl), Friday, 25 November 2016 02:49 (seven years ago) link
my family never did anything wrong to me i just don't want to be around them
― spite n ease (harbl), Friday, 25 November 2016 02:50 (seven years ago) link
i'm the worst!
i'm sorry i drank so much wine and got sad quiet drunk

I made my mom a cosmo and now she's passed out. At 6:35.
― toadstool might (tehresa), Saturday, 26 November 2016 00:35 (seven years ago) link
it was okay
i like my parents and aunt and uncle and the latter's golden retriever jake (dude is so ~feathery~ he has to get his feet trimmed!) and fat cat chloe
can never sleep there, tho
my mom spent the whole time staring at me and building a guilt trip about visiting for xmas. srsly it's creepy -- i'd totally go if she'd stop fuckin staring at me
no doubt i'll go anyway because she and i are all way old and they're gonna die and i'm their only child. at least no one voted for orange asshole, or i wouldn't have shown up for this

asked my (irish) uncle his thoughts on the late william trevor; he said 'he was a year ahead of us at trinity and we all thought he was a prick'

i know this is not a bad problem to have but i can't even tolerate people talking about donald trump being bad. i just don't want to hear about it anymore. and every year i realize more and more all of my worst personality traits come from my dad. everything he does i'm like, fuck, do i do that? nooooooooo
