A Thanksgiving Song by Ben

To be sung to the tune of "O Christmas Tree."

Oh turkey meat, oh turkey meat
Oh how I love my turkey meat
I love it all, both dark and white
And everything that's by its side
Oh turkey meat, oh turkey meat
Oh how I love my turkey meat!

It gets stuck in your head, doesn't it?

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!

Can we change it to "Black Saturday?"

Every year on the day after Thanksgiving, I look forward to getting up in the middle of the night and doing this:


It has kind of become a tradition among the women in my family. It's ridiculously crazy to get up so early to fight the crowds, but that's what makes it so fun. We always have a blast and I usually end up buying a bunch of crap that I don't need just because it was on a really good sale. Then we go to IHOP and then I go home and fall asleep.

This year on black Friday, I have to do this:


Except I probably won't look as happy as this random girl. And I don't have any potted plants near my desk. Seriously, being an adult is lame sometimes. I've never had to work on Black Friday before. I guess I'll just go shopping on Saturday with all the other sad people who have to work on Friday.
