I don’t do a whole lot of blogging since most things worth writing about are made into a comic at some point, but I feel like leaving older updates with past holidays in the heading tends to make my homepage look a bit dated. So today I’ve titled a post with yet another holiday that’s already passed defeating the reason for blogging at all.

Word of the day: Self-defeating prophecy.

Thanksgiving was pretty lovely I think, living in a foreign country so far away from friends and family back home can be tough for a lot of people, so it’s nice to have a sort of surrogate family of friends in the same position to share the day with. Food and drink were plentiful, Charlie Brown was watched (not as good as The Great Pumpkin or the Christmas special, but it’s something), and conversation was had.

I wonder quite a bit why there simply aren’t more Thanksgiving themed movies in the catalog of classics, while there must be a billion for Christmas, and just about any horror film will do for Halloween. While I personally enjoy the ‘robot turkey from the future’ episode of Aqua Teen Hunger Force, I don’t think it’s generally acceptable as a holiday classic. Oh swells…

I’ll write something non-holiday related soon, and if not I’ll just post something about Christmas, eesh this season is stressful.
