Giving Thanks.

I'm not into God things. I believe in the Little Pixies Who Rule the Universe.

But I am hereby Giving Thanks anyway.

I am Giving Thanks for my family, my friends, and all who surround me with love. I am also Giving Thanks for those who don't like me. I am grateful for the questions, doubt, and uncertainty they instill.

Other Things I Am Giving Thanks For:

- Fuzzy animals
- Hot chocolate
- Manhattans (Oh.My.Pixies. Two parts Canadian Club, one part red vermouth. Yumness.)
- Fall, with its colours and smells. And hail with sunshine, like today.)
- Work. When it's fulfilling and elating, like my job.
- Brig and Jenn and Marie and especially Estorbo. They are why I write here. (Oh - 'Storbito, Boo says hi. He caught a spider today. He split it in two and claimed you were coming over for dinner. What a sweetheart, no?)
-Girl Weekends like the one I'm about to enjoy. Mom, Sis and knitting needles. (And Manhattans)

The list could go on. But I'll just bore you to death.
Instead, I'll say this: GO VOTE ON TUESDAY! I've actually been following the US election more than ours...hmmm. Dunno why. Probably because Jon Stewart is so sexy.

(WARNING: I am about to express Political Views. Avert thou eyes, Republicans!)

Oh! And I'm grateful I don't live in the States. Marie, I really hope you don't get stuck with McCain and Palin. I have a room here, if you want. You can bring Estorbo. ;o)

Back on Monday with monkey stories, useless banter and fascinating blurbs from my new book, "Oh What Now". Ciao, Legion of Fans!
