I'm off to Florida to spend Thanksgiving with mom and step-dad and their friends. It'll a week of football and eating and a fair amount of drinking and listening to old folks talk about their various aches, pains, illnesses, surgeries, etc. Although I'm technically "on vacation" I'm bringing my computer with me; how much work I wind up doing will likely be directly proportional to the amount of time my stepfather has Fox News turned on and I have to politely avoid him. Or I'll just anesthetize with the drinking and sleep a lot; better than arguing.
Sigh. Gonna miss my sickly man and biting girl and itchy boy and stalk-and-pounce kitties.

Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
