I would have invited you to Hickory to spend it with my family and me.
11/26/2009 10:39:19 PM
I did. I get off work in about 20 minutes then I will go to sleep and have to be back here at 7:00am tomorrow. At least I am not alone and not getting paid though.

I did. Had a couple of people I cite me over, but declined. I was exhausted from working 17 straight hours.

some people take holidays way too seriouslywhy do you have to get together with your family or friends one a specified date, just do it when you can and chow down.
11/27/2009 9:16:28 AM
That's all well and good if your family lives close by, but Holiday's are the only time I will see my immediate family all at the same time all year long.I live in Raleigh, my parents and brother live near San Francisco and my sister lives in New York City (as of Dec 4)... We all get work off/can take vacations around Christmas.
11/27/2009 9:21:20 AM
I can't be the only one here who feels absolutely no self-pity about spending a holiday alone. Am I?
11/27/2009 9:33:17 AM
Nope.I mean, it would have been nice to see my family, but I had a pretty decent lazy day.Just lounged around watching some football and a few Blu-Rays with the fireplace on. I could think of worse days to have...
11/27/2009 9:48:11 AM
Exactly. I mean I'm not a complete hermit but and I can see how not having anyone who wanted to be with you (as opposed to not being able to be with you) would suck, but I'm around people who demand my time every other day. A quiet day at home is nice every once in a while.
11/27/2009 9:53:09 AM
very true NyM, I didn't think about that situation.
11/27/2009 9:57:28 AM
I wasn't alone, there were plenty of people playing Aion on Thanksgiving with me.
11/27/2009 10:28:39 AM
Not really alone, but most of it with my wife in the hospital. She slept most of the day.Went home in the PM to work on the house renovation and then met my in-laws late for dinner at Carolina Ale House.Then came back to the hospital where my wife is sleeping still.So, it's been great.
11/27/2009 11:29:39 AM
hope she gets feeling better

Dinner itsekf was basically alone. sat at the kiddie table with my older sister and 3younger cousins. After they ate they all booked, so it was just my sister and I. With a huge 55in TV in our face with the cowboys game playing.
11/27/2009 12:02:31 PM
i thought if i spent the day keeping to myself i would avoid the drama but not so much
11/27/2009 12:06:15 PM
Man, you are one pathetic loserNo offense
11/27/2009 12:39:51 PM
11/27/2009 12:46:17 PM
^^i'm a loser because i don't want to get involved in family drama that doesn't pertain to me? oops
11/27/2009 12:47:50 PM
Naw, I think he means referring to it in every single thread with the word Thanksgiving in it
