The Second Thanksgiving of the Season
Today it is Thanksgiving at my family's house (good thing I love turkey!), so we are just about ready to go over there and spend the day gorging ourselves on food and playing Mexican Train dominoes, which has got to be the most fun game known to man. Anyway, everyone enjoy their Saturday!

i had two thanksgivings! one was at my boyfriend's family's house, and the next night was at mine. funny thing is, both cooked the exact same meal, down to the biscuits. my mother never cooks, so the fact that she happened to cook the exact same thing is pretty weird!

Bizarreness in The Gold Box
I very strange toy in my Amazon.com Gold Box Offers today, but nothing to intice me to make a purchase.
.: American Lawn Mower Company 1705-16 16" Bent Reel Mower: in today's day and age, why would you even buy a push mower? I would go power all the way!
Read more »
.: Riedel Vinum Extreme Sauvignon Blanc Wine Glass, Set of 6: Steven and I both don't drink wine, so going to pass on this.
.: Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer: by far the best mouse you can buy. If you don't have one of these, you should.
.: Garmin eTrex Vista 24 MB GPS with Compass, Altimeter and PC Cable: since all I would use this for would be to geocache on occasion, I think this is a bit much to spend. Pass.
.: Farberware Classic 6-Quart Stockpot with Lid: this was a really good deal, but since Steven doesn't need one, I'm going to pass.
.: Dirt Devil 082600 Vision Bagless Canister Vacuum: looks like a great vacuum, but we're not in the market for one right now.
.: GoVideo DVR4200 DVD/VCR Combo: we just bought a DVD player a few months back, so I don't need to get another one right now.
.: Panasonic SC-HT75 CD Home Theater Mini System: this looked awesome, but since we have most of the components anyway, I'm going to pass on taking this offer.
.: Harley-Davidson Ken #2: can you say creepy? There's something very weird about Ken with facial hair, a tattoo, and in leather chaps.
.: Philips MC7037 Hi-Fi Micro System with 3-CD Changer: another item I'm just not in the mood for.

24 Marathon
Steven has been in Austin at the UT game all day (where A&M got their ass beat. Go, Texas!) so the kitty and I are about to retire to the couch with Blueberry Pop-Tarts to watch the three episodes I have recorded of 24. I loved last season and can't wait to see how this season is going to go. Don't you love Fridays off from work? I know I do!

Happy Thanksgiving!
We'll be leaving soon for Steven's parents' house (Thanksgiving with my family is this Saturday), but I wanted to wish everyone a happy, safe, filled with yummy food Thanksgiving Day. I know I grouse a lot about all manner of things, but I do have a lot to be thankful for - my family, Steven, my friends, and a fairly successful life. I hope that everyone has a wonderful day and eats too much and falls asleep content.

It's a Group Thing XXXIX
I did a bunch of my Christmas shopping today and yesterday, so I found today's "It's a Group Thing" very appropriate. Today's term is:
A Quicksand of Credit Cards

Reasons For Love #8
Every Wednesday those who are involved in a relationship with somebody share a few (simple but significant) reasons for their love. Please keep in mind that this does not have to be a romantic relationship. It can be about a parent, a sibling, a friend, a co-worker, your kid, your dog, whatever.
Stop in here to join the notify list, see who else has left their reasons, and to be added to the blogroll. Also, feel free to save the button below to your server and link it to http://www.neuroticfishbowl.com/reasons.html
I love Steven because...
- When he picks up Bella he talks to her in cute, baby talk
- He split a Litter Free with me (even though it was really expensive) to help solve Bella's problem of peeing on the floor
- He's taking me out for Chinese food tonight because I really want it
- When we had a stupid fight yesterday he called me and apologized
- He's been a big help on a project of mine
- He's so very sweet to me
- He was very amused by how much I like my Zip Zap

A day late, but up now. I have been sick but it was a good time to write about the reasons for love :)
Posted by Rebecca at November 28, 2002 05:39 AM
He cleaned both of the boys bedrooms today.
He made the mashed potatoes.
He fixed the wood fence in my horse pasture.
He said that dinner was great and thanked me for making it.

I'm a little late but mine are up. :)

Thanksgiving
Since it's almost Thanksgiving, I thought I'd do a quick list of what I'm thankful for today:
- Being home by 4:00 in the afternoon and in my cute, comfy pajama bottoms at the start of a four day weekend
- A cute, sweet boyfriend
- A sweet kitty to cuddle with and who just went and used the box all by herself. Good kitty!
- Lunch today with my mother
- Dinner tonight at Chinese Cafe
- Wonderful friends and family
Of course, this isn't nearly all the things that I'm thankful for, but just a few off the top of my head. What are you thankful for this season?

The Gold Box Duo
For some reason I only got two offers in my Amazon.com Gold Box today. Strange.
.: Musso 4080 Lussino Dessert Maker: since this ice cream maker was only $50 instead of $600, I think I'll stick with it.
.: All-Clad Stainless 7-1/2 Inch Fry Pan: we don't need one of these, so I'll pass.

What a great picture! I wish I could take quick candids of myself like that.

Interesting Gold Box Items
A few interesting items in my Amazon.com Gold Box Offers today, but nothing that compelled me to make a purchase.
.: Gerber Nursery Doll Food Time: I don't have any kids, but even if I did, I wouldn't subject them to a scary doll like this.

- I had a great deal in my Amazon Gold Box today
- Got some more cute stripey socks today (and thanks to Christine catching them ringing up at too much, didn't have to pay too much)

Yeah! They were going to scam us on our socks! Big corporate meanies. Yeah for stripey socks!

Hey! I bought WHMS DVD from my gold box too. :) First thing that's been worthy.

Pizza and Donuts For Soldiers
Michele rallied behind a new cause for the blogging world to help out with - pizza and soda for soldiers in Israel. They are trying to raise $1,000 for Chanukah, so go give a few dollars, won't you?

Zip Zap!
Thanks to Christine and Mike, I know have my very own Zip Zap! It's the silver Porche, but I am definitely going to get the purple PT Crusier. Ah, if you could only see Christine trying to do donuts around my Beanie Baby.

A Romace Movie in The Gold Box
I'm a sucker for cheap DVDs in my Amazon.com Gold Box Offers, so I made a purchase today.
.: When Harry Met Sally: I've never actually seen this movie, though I've heard wonderful things about it for many years, so when Amazon offered it to me for $9.30, I had to buy it.

That is a great movie. I'd have bought it for that price as well.

Boring Box
Nothing of interest today in my Amazon.com Gold Box Offers.
.: AudioSource IC5S Round Ceiling Speakers - Pair: we already have some nice Klipsch speakers in the living room, so no need to buy these.
Read more »
.: Simplicity SA2200 Creative Spirit Plus 45 Stitch Function Sewing Machine: like I wouldn't know how to work a sewing machine to save my life. Pass.
.: Trickstyle: since I don't have a Dreamcast and they don't even make them anymore, I think it would be a bit foolish to buy this.
.: WMF Profi-Plus 11-Inch Stainless Steel Ball Whisk: Steven already has one of these so pass.
.: Ovations by Oneida Strauss Stainless Steel Flatware, 53-Piece Service for 8: I'm not very impressed with this pattern, so I'm definitely not purchasing these.
.: Mikasa Terrazzo Stoneware Covered Sugar Bowl: they keep offering me this pattern and I keep passing. Wonder if they'll ever learn that I don't like this and won't buy it.
.: WMF Manhattan Stainless Steel Cocktail Shaker with Built-In Strainer: checked with Steven just last night and he said he didn't need one of these since the one he already owns works fine.
.: Action Man Mega Figure: Jungle Dart: I don't have any kids, but even if I did, I don't think I'd buy them this weird toy.
.: Farberware Millennium Satin Enamel Nonstick 12-Piece Cookware Set, Steel Blue: these look like great pots, but since I bought Steven a whole set just over a year ago, I'm going to pass. Love the color, though.
.: Hewlett Packard PS720 3.3MP Digital Camera w/ 3x Optical Zoom: this seems comparable to my camera and since I love it so much, I'm not interested.
