Happy Thanksgiving to all here, you guys are awesome.

I give thanks to the Packers.

I give thanks to my mother that just had be unload her three closets of Christmas decorations (and I mean that, she puts on a wonderful holiday house).

I give thanks that my family and friends are in good health.

In particular I give thanks that I'm being taken out to dinner tonight, and don't have to cook.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone who celebrates it. I thankful our new furnace was installed yesterday just in time for the holiday and works great. Now we won't have to eat and freeze huddled around our overworked space heaters.

We half celebrated Thanksgiving--seems late in the year for this...

Did some gratitude contemplation as cheesy as that may sound, but for us it is difficult times.

Heat and temperature of your choice is one of my go to things when things are tough. You only need to go without that to think about how we live better than kings in some ways. (And some other ways are full bellies, with food that doesn't give us food poisoning, and modern Western plumbing) I mean that sincerely, but if it comes across as sanctimonious than oh well.

But hey, if you must have families, football, and pumpkin pie, that is beyond good.

Hmm, yes, Happy Thanksgiving to anyone who's having one!

Happy Thanksgiving to all! Contrary to what many say of Native Americans, we do for the most part celebrate Thanksgiving. Our celebrations may be a little different, but celebrations they are! We give Thanks and this year I have much to be thankful for!

Someone out there who knows more about literary theory than I do, I would love to be enlightened as to why we enjoy the hardship and challenge of characters in writing.

I real life, there is an idea in psychology called downward comparision. It tends to make us happy that we are not exeriencing the same troubles that someone else has and that we can feel better about our circumstances. Does it elicit some sort of gratitude?

Okay, and now for A Song of Ice and Fire. Things to be grateful for ...

not being North of the Wall.
not being married to Reek.
not being a relative of Cersei
not being in an inn at the Riverlands
not being Meereenese

Any ideas?
