..but first

Turkey Day is my favorite Holiday of the year. There's no pressure to do anything the TV tells you to do, and all that matters is food, family and good company. Sit back, eat whatever you find on a counter, stare at the television and watch football teams you'd never otherwise watch..Its all gravy...Literally...

...But first, I get to enjoy the fruits of creative scheduling. For some reason a 6:50 am flight to Florida made a lot of sense. It was cheaper than flying today, and I get most of tomorrow to relax anyway. It doesn't seem too smart right now. Getting to the airport takes on a whole meaning tomorrow morning. According to my schedule, I have to be out of my house before 4:10 AM in order to ensure that I get to the airport by five. That's an aggressive strategy, but I'm hoping to get there no later than 5:15 AM. I'm the kind who likes to get there early so I can relax and watch stressed travelers stand in lines. A winner is me...but still have to get up at precisely the same time I passed out four nights ago.

You're probably reading this after Thanksgiving. I hope you enjoyed it. Did you try the gravy with white rice?
