leftovers (a flashback)

while this bit is coming out one week AFTER turkey day in 2023, i guess it was the sunday that wrapped up the holiday weekend when it dropped in 2008…

…and the real irony? i’m prepping this while i wait for our thanksgiving ham to finish up on the actual day (nov 23, 2023). so, without further ado…

turkey (day) wrap (up)

i almost called this bit “leftovers”…

(2023 note – now you know where the title came from)

…till i realized that this wasn’t leftover from anything. but while i love me some halloween (and plan on actually being prepared next year with a kick-ass costume) and xmas (cause people give you shit) i think turkey day could be the best holiday of the fall. why the fuck would i say that? there are seven deadly sins – and this boy hits six of them at least. and six of seven will ALWAYS win the playoffs – hell, you don’t even get to go that in the best of seven series, for crying out loud…

six turkey day sins

1. gluttony – do i really need to explain this one?

2. greed – try and get that drumstick from uncle buster…i dare you. cousin scott did tried last year; now we call him “lefty”.

3. sloth – see anyone from numbers one or two about an hour after the meal…

4. wrath – ever shown up and brought something you weren’t supposed to, therefore doubling up on stuffing or yams or whatever? ever seen what your “competing” relative gets your dish-swapping ass at xmas a month later?

5. envy – there’s always that one big slice of pie, and for those who didn’t get it…

6. pride – A&M – 9 UT – 49

2023 note – this bit was from 2008, and the last time they actually played each other was 2011 (ut won that one by two points) but the rivalry returns in 2024

enough said on that…

…shame the last one (lust) didn’t make it into my weekends, huh?
