Thanksgiving!

It's less than a week to Thanksgiving, now. That's good because I really like Thanksgiving.

For one, there's a lot of good food. I can't get enough of turkey, gravy, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, or stuffing. Really, I can't. That's why I generally eat too much of it for my stomach to handle.

Secondly, there's the giving thanks. I like the hymns, the harvest memorials, the happy people filled with gratitude. I like the life I lead and the gifts God's given me.

Thirdly, Thanksgiving is Christmas-season Eve. I don't go shopping the next day, but I do start the Christmas music the next day. Christmas season is a happy and glorious time of year, and I can't wait to immerse myself in it completely. That can happen this year on the 24th of November. Hurrah!

Really, the last reason is why I'm really looking forward to Thanksgiving.
