Third Thanksgiving
Nov. 23rd, 2008 03:48 amIt's just been brought to my attention that I seem to have forgotten to mention this before - in a couple of hours we'll be flying (or jetting, as JetBlue is keen to remind us) as usual over for Thanksgiving with Whitney's parents in California, which as usual is on fire. We're not going to Los Angeles this time, though - just straight to Oakland Airport, and as there will be no construction taking place in the house either, I'm almost tempted to say that the holiday might even be quite relaxing for a change.
In anticipation of the six-hour flight I have a laptop, spare battery, iPod with the entirety of Father Ted and some Have I Got News For You and They Think It's All Over on it, and if all those aren't enough there's always Whitney to talk to.
And just like any good postcard, we're actually here already - I wrote this just before we left and LJ went down between when I opened the window and submitted it. The last post seems to have positively bloomed in discussion with none of my involvement, but it's coming up to four in the morning in the time zone we left from and we're going to bed.
