Happy Thanksgiving!

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving Day, and I have to work. The excuse given is that Thanksgiving is a time to see family, and since I have no family to see I’m the unfortunate candidate for working. At least I only have to answer my cell phone, I won’t be coming into the office.

I have no big plans for Thanksgiving so far. I think some people where I live will be cooking a turkey and we’ll just have a small-ish party but not sure what else will be happening. It’s the day that Americans consume the most food in the year, it even outdoes Christmas. In fact, the second highest consumption of food occurs on Superbowl day.

Today is my day off work. I’ve finally finished my 6 day week pattern and will be getting two days off again. I’m planning on wasting my day today by going to the cinema with a friend and abusing the system by seeing as many movies as possible. I want to see American Gangster, Into the Wild, Beowulf and she wants to see Enchanted. So I reckon we’ll get our money’s worth. It’s extremely easy to see more than one movie, especially if you go to this one theatre on Van Ness. They check your ticket at the bottom of the stairs and all the screens are on the top floor. It’s so understaffed that they don’t have enough people to look after the candy and drinks counter on the top floor, so people just nip behind the counter and steal what they want. Stupidity.

Oh, and Friday night will be awesome. I will be going to see California’s best tribute band – Evolution – playing the music of Journey, supported by a KISS tribute band! Can’t wait!

Anyway, Happy Thanksgiving!
