(Subtitled: It’s Thanksgiving, Bitches!)
So, what am I thankful for at the end of 2009?
…I am thankful to have Gene, a husband who loves me for reasons I cannot always fathom. He is giving, accepting, loving, a pain in the ass (sometimes) and a hard worker. I am proud of him and I am pretty damned lucky to have him.
…I am thankful we have excellent health insurance through Gene’s job. You truly do not want to know how much Blue Cr.oss has paid out this year.
…oh, and I’m thankful that Gene has a job with such good benefits.
…I’m thankful for a family who loves me
…I’m thankful for good friends, especially the Almighty D (who got an earful the other night before we left work. Poor D).
…I’m thankful that White Dog still lives, since I am really not ready to voyage back to Windowsville. (Remember: Gene’s employer rhymes with Schmulet Shmackard, so my Genius Bar days are limited if White Dog bites it).
…I am thankful that I do not have to clean a damned dish for tomorrow. 5:30 reservations across the street, hooray! (I know, leftovers, but I will miss them much less than I would rue having to clean the f*%^#ng roasting pan)
…I am thankful that I have been given the gift of time. (As far as I can tell, the lack of surprises is the big upside to infertility). (And you thought I could skip the “I” word? Really?)
