REACHING THANKSGIVING VELOCITY 2023

Reaching Thanksgiving starts on Halloween with:

If I eat too much candy now I’ll eat less dinner on Thanksgiving.

Also:

If I gain weight now I’ll drop it by Thanksgiving.

What usually happens?

Buy extra candy on Halloween ‘just in case we get lots of trick or treaters.’

Put all Milky Ways in the freezer and eat everything else.

Or, throw it away. You decide.

 

The night before Thanksgiving cook the pizza Charlie left in the freezer.

Thinly slice onions for an extra topping.

But don’t eat it all. 

Build the anticipation of overeating early.

 

Reaching Thanksgiving Day

Start with a breakfast of Kelly’s chicken soup.

Is it good soup? The girl is a chef. It’s great soup for breakfast or any time.

But before eating anything, your wife has left the bedroom at five in the morning to start making stuffing.

I’ve owned five in the morning for years. That’s declared writing time to get posts out for the east coast lunch browse.

Not today.

We started the stuffing last night by making iron pan cornbread together and letting it sit out to get to that stale state needed for stupendous stuffing.

Lots of vegetables needed chopping, which was no surprise.

I sharpened all the knives yesterday in anticipation.

So I go at it on the celery, carrots, onions, and others needing a half inch chop.

My wife held her fingers up to I’d know what a half inch looked like.

 

Writing Time Every Day Even Reaching Thanksgiving

If you have a writer in the family, and they miss Thanksgiving to write?

There are other ways to get the work done.

But some people consider writing their holy mission.

I like those people, my kind of people, which doesn’t mean I want to be around them.

What they should do instead is focus on the process.

A writer gets their work done. That’s a given.

Otherwise they’re not writers.

But writing is rewriting. No one just pukes out a bunch of words and hopes they make sense.

No one, right bloggers?

So do some rewriting before reaching Thanksgiving.

You’ll be glad you did, instead of locking yourself in your writing room for a nominal amount of time before joining in.

And getting nothing done except taking yourself too seriously. Again.

But you’ve made your holiday statement: You’re more important than anything else.

However, the statement you made to non-writers is, “I’m a little bitch and if I don’t get my work done, I’m a big bitch.”

No one needs to see that.

 

Reaching Thanksgiving On Social Media

Do people on social media take a day off on Thanksgiving?

Apparently not. They consider themselves writers? That must be it.

Or, the world is such a mess that it needs their opinions and feelings to heal and rise.

It comes into focus for me when someone on twitter X, someone with tens of thousands of followers, takes the time to school someone with 63 followers.

I don’t chime in on their work, but it’s an example of ‘punching down.’

If I had a half million followers I’d never punch down. I don’t do it with my tidy 850 followers. Who needs to see petty people piss all over themselves?

Social Media relies on it.

 

Since we are reaching Thanksgiving velocity, I checked to see who gets the turkey pecker for biggest pisser this year.

And the winner is:

 

Happy Thanksgiving to ALL, including the Racist & Incompetent Attorney General of New York State, Letitia “Peekaboo” James, who has let Murder & Violent Crime FLOURISH, & Businesses FLEE; the Radical Left Trump Hating Judge, a “Psycho,” Arthur Engoron, who Criminally Defrauded the State of New York, & ME, by purposely Valuing my Assets at a “tiny” Fraction of what they are really worth in order to convict me of Fraud before even a Trial, or seeing any PROOF, & used his Politically Biased & Corrupt Campaign Finance Violator, Chief Clerk Alison Greenfield, to sit by his side on the “Bench” & tell him what to do; & Crooked Joe Biden, who has WEAPONIZED his Department of Injustice against his Political Opponent, & allowed our Country to go to HELL; & all of the other Radical Left Lunatics, Communists, Fascists, Marxists, Democrats, & RINOS, who are seriously looking to DESTROY OUR COUNTRY. Have no fear, however, we will WIN the Presidential Election of 2024, & MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!

 

Until Then

Final note: When someone is so dumb they couldn’t pour piss out of a boot with the directions on the heel, let them wear shoes in the house when you invite them in.

Last note: When someone acts like they’re drowning by gasping and flailing it’s usually because they are drowning.

What is it called, the gasping and flailing, if they’re not drowning, if they’re no where near water, if they are on a stage behind a dais?

It’s an act repeated over and over again at new locations.

Like every oldie but goodie band playing the same hits over and over, people start tuning out, stop buying tickets and merch, and everyone but the drummer retires or dies.

Until then, the beat goes on.

Happy Thanksgiving.
