Crossed Giblets of Death MMXXIII

[OscarMadison]

Good tidings and karma to you, swingline, and hopefully the stamp arrives soon for the final document.

My brother just ended his 8-years with a psychotic, narcissistic lying adulterous slug who had an affair, broke up two marriages with four kids, has shown no remorse or apologized, and her lover moved in with her before the divorce was final. She's an unfit mother. I hope her giblets get crossed so much she walks in front of a speeding car.

My soon to be ex was none of that, and she's a pretty good mom to our kids. I'm just ready for it to be official. My $700 worth of scotch will be shared with my brother in law and my sister. I'll be spending the night with them, hoping I don't puke in the guest room.

I gave my brother a bottle of Jefferson's bourbon to celebrate.

(Edit: And @swingline) It feels awkward to like divorce posts. Congratulations and condolences?

That is pretty!

Currently watching Gilmore Girls' Thanksgiving episode. It's an all-timer.

One show that had great Tgiving eps that is overlooked is Will & Grace. The ep where Jack comes out to his mother, where we see Will & Grace in college, where they go to four different Thanksgiving dinners... so great.

Sookie and the Gilmore parents were the best parts of GG.

Belated happy birthday, @Flip Wilson!

The turkey and stuffings and wine (!!) and all the pies were fantastic,
but even better was watching 8 happy grandkids run wild all day long.

Dinner with my brother and brother-in-law (that's all the family that's left). Went well. Already thinking about modifications to the apple pie, which was my contribution.

"Hoping I Don't Puke in the Guest Room" would be an amazing name for a book or album.

Got in around 9 last night at my parents' place with daughter in tow. Our feast is today, because single dads learn to paint memories with pastel blends instead of sharp edges. But I did sneak a glash of egg nog (sadly unspiked) last night so it is officially The Holiday Season.

My brother (referenced above) and his 5-yo daughter are here, and we're having a grand time watching Frozen, playing with crayons and stuffed animals, and lots of laughs and hugs. Our hearts are full and blessed. No eggnog, though (yet). More turkey and a full array is underway for lunch.

Just finished the post-Thanksgiving breakfast of champions -- black coffee and a slice of cold apple pie.

I had chocolate-zucchini bread for breakfast in preparation for lining up for a Black Friday sale at the local sneaker store. Dude behind me said, at 9:30 a.m., "I'm drunk as hell."

"A Thanksgiving Intervention" is a Hallmark Movie I want to see.

Tofu heartburn.

Since we didn't want to hit the mall crowds, we hit the crowds at Ephrata's Green Dragon farmers' market. Good stuff.
