Save the neck for me, Clark.


Life has been a little busy and I apologize for all the wait...I know everyone out there wants to know what is going on in my crazy life with curly hair...although it is straight today. Well you can see that I got into the Thanksgiving spirit this year. Full on Turkey costume. Aren't you jealous? I delivered turkeys for work. I think it is called being low man on the totum poll. Then I went home on Wednesday to spend the holiday with my fabulous family. That is until they decided to eat shrimp, close my throat, call 911, huge ass shot in my leg and a panic attack at the great hospital in old Tappy. Seriously people shrimp are no longer allowed in my life. Then I woke up on Thursday and watched Aunt Courtenay make a pumpkin pie with "old spice" not "allspice"...and just in time to watch my mom pull the bird out of the oven the first time when she cursed and told me that she didn't think the bird she bought had legs...but this one from the oven most def had legs. I left to change, deciding that I could not wear my pajamas to Thanksgiving dinner, when mom called me laughing and telling me that I had to swear not to tell, but she looked at the bag after I left and she bought a chicken. Chicken not turkey. It is really hard to keep things from my brother Geoff...I am not good at fibbing and he knows. So he starts to tell me how he is soooooo hungry that he could "eat the ass out of the turkey". I am brushing my teeth and trying hard not to choke on my own spit. He hears me giggle and starts the questions. He finally figures out and I tell him that mom bought a chicken...and it has been a really tough couple of weeks with Grandpolly being sick and we should be thankful we are eating thanksgiving dinner at all. He tells me he wanted turkey. We head to Grandpollys and surprise her with family and chicken. She doesn't care...family is what is important. So Geoff decides we had a fake Thanksgiving...we had Chicken, mashed potatoes and one of our gravies from KFC, and homemade whipped cream which is fake cool whip. It was a sight in the kitchen with paper plates and a plastic table cloth. Hey pull up the RV and put up the Nascar flags...and most of all save the neck for me Clark! disclaimer: the costume really pushes the girls up and I did not get DDs for Christmas.
