I gave Thanks.

Thanksgiving brought rain to The Mountain. I spent the morning cleaning for the group of students coming, mostly to cleanse the main room of Tischer. One student was seriously allergic to dog saliva, which ends up on their hair, to which Tischer (and the countless other dogs from the last 50+ years) deposits whenever she gets the chance, inside and out.

Later, from within the confines of Charlie's bar downtown Govy I watched through the front window as a cold rain turned briefly into a warm snow on main street. Football, PBR, and hot totties. Afterwards, as I entered the cabin front door, the table was set and candles were lit. I had a place mat set on the corner. Some of these fine students had been cooking since the previous night and a feast was indeed waiting. We sipped white wine, entertained second helpings, and discussed topics I can't remember. With sweet potatoes on my breath, I slipped up the stairs to Tischer and my bed.

Drunk and stuffed before 7PM. Happy Thanksgiving 2008. Still no snow.
