The evil eye is upon you so listen up.

Thanksgiving is right around the proverbial corner. This by far is my favorite holiday and Id like to take the opportunity to tell you all to take the opportunity to take stock in your lives. I like gorging on food and all of that, but what I most appreciate is that there is a day simply for taking some time to acknowledge whats good about your existence.

It might be something small like being thankful that your pants didnt fall down in public again today to something substantially larger like being thankful that your friend triumphantly beat breast cancer. Both of which are true in my case.
Better yet, try to have a little bit of Thanksgiving every day of the year. When youre done doing what youre doing right now, go tell your friend that youre glad they exist. Get on your bike, and acknowledge the fact that you have the ability to do just that, go to the woods, and breath deeply, or take a nap with your fuzzy buddy...just take a second everyday and remember that despite the fact that things can get pretty crappy sometimes, youve got some blessings too, and maybe you should count them.
Maybe all of you are fully aware of these things. Perhaps Im the only one who needs a reminder, and thats what this post is about. Im slapping my own face with the obvious.
If I cant get my act together to post again before the impending food coma sets in, I hope you all have a great next few days, and for what its worth, besides all of the other things in my life that I appreciate, I appreciate you all too.
