Happy Thanksgiving! AKA Turkey Day!
I love turkey...I'm going to some friends house for dinner tonight...theyalways make a huge, farm raised, organic turkey. It is so good, and they're great cooks as it is, so everything is tasty. Should be fun.
Before then, though I have to work on a paper that's due monday. Its an incomplete from last december that I finally said I would get done by Dec. 1. This was before I realized the Library at school was closed for 2 weeks at thanksgiving. So I had to drag a bunch of books home...Oh well, could be worse.
So Thanksgiving means the real beginning of the holiday season. I've never been a huge fan of this time of year, with all the commerciallized ads and shopping and decorations and crap. But this yeer is worse, my mind has been thinking forward to the first anniverary of my sister's death last Christmas eve. It makes the whole season feal quite dark for me. I always knew that the holidays were depressing for a lot of people...now I know from experiance. I feel like I should go back to the ND to spend time with my family, but I know that'll be weird/uncomfortable...we don't really talk about stuff, so we'd all just sit around and be depressed. I don't know what to do.

Unfortunately my paper writing is going well. I am totally done with 1 class and finished all hose papers but it doesn't help that in the other class I have 3 to finish. I hope your paper writing goes somewhat better than mine.
I am sorry that you feel down but it's totally understandable why. I'm sure you're family probably misses you regardless but obviously I don't know anything about the situation.
Good luck on the paper and try to enjoy at leas some of the break. Don't work too hard.
