29 - thanksgiving weekend

mmmmm... thanksgiving...

its 12:15 am ish, and me and the guys are watching Ong-Bock, a Thai fighting movie. i'm at ryan's family's house in tomball, houston, texas. he has 4 other brothers, ranging in ages from 8 to 18. i'm pretty tired, it's been a long day.

it was black friday. i've never gone shopping on the day after thanksgiving, except for that time in 2005... ryan said "hey you want to go to the galleria tomorrow?" he didn't really even realized that it was going to be a major crazy sale day with floods of deal hunters swarming every square foot of the whole mall. so we went, and got a sweater for me. among with giant headaches for the both of us.

so this morning i got up at about 6:30, was out the door by 7, then finally made it home sometime around 6:30pm. now i know thats just like a normal work day for many people, but it was a little more nuts than any old day at work. i'll spare you the details, but i guess i'll mention that at the end of the night, we'd all settled down to have a penochle tournament which belva and i thouroughly dominated. how does this have anything to do with anything? eh.

i like it when i get to see family. i got to see pretty much all the stanley's, and my parents. i would have liked to have seen the floods and jonas. shout out floods!
