We started "Thankful Thursday" about two or three months ago. And by 'we' I mean Reice, Kaitlyn, Lauren, Krystle, Angela, and me. We were at El Arroyo drinking margaritas like always and decided to be extra thankful about things (mostly silly, idiotic things) the next day. I was told more than once that I wasn't participating enough, so I will now.
I'm seriously thankful for having a family that loves me. Even if it's in weird, unspoken ways. I'm thankful that I have friends. They may annoy me time and time again but I'm still glad I have people like them that I can count on. I'm thankful for caffeine in the form of soda. I'm thankful for jeans. I could not handle wearing dresses or slacks every day. Gross. I'm thankful that I was born without any serious issues and that I still have all of my senses intact. I'm thankful I haven't had to deal with anyone close to me dying. I'm thankful someone invented glasses/contacts. I'm thankful for books. Good ones. I'm thankful I was born in America, for many reasons. One being because we have running, mostly-uncontaminated water.
[insert: Hey, dry mouth! Fuck you.]
Super-serial thanks go to: kittens, porcelain turtles, Crocodile, origami birds, Rooster Booster, Casey, Niero, Pancake, Chicken Express Sweet Tea, Indiana, Bernice, KT, Peanut, K-Tol, Victor, Liz, being called Krista Moore, Quinn, JC, happy hour, '80s music, Barefoot White Zin, the color red, Band-Aids, AJ, pain medication, tampons, H&M coming to Northpark, toenail clippers, tweezers, sleeping in newly cleaned bed sheets, baby owls, postcards, Tons, razors.
It's taken me so long to write this that it may in fact be Thursday by now. Either way, Happy Thanksgiving. Enjoy family time and all that generic shit. Goodnight!
