Thanksgiving is always a good time to be thankful for various sorts of food, and various forms of family, and believe me, I adore both, and spent a weekend rife with them. I also spent a lot of time absorbing bits of culture, which I have time right now only to ennumerate but not describe. Will it suffice to say that everything below is very very good?
When I Was Young and in My Primeby Alayna Munce -- lyric novel
30 Rock -- tv show
Across the Universe -- film
Those are all worth experiencing, as are the other highlights of my weekend, but M and L's house, my mother's apple pie, and the experience of applying black lipstick in a housewares store while T holds up a pot lid to reflect your face, are sadly not linkable.
These are days you'll remember

Still racked (wracked?) by terrible chest pains but being v. stoic in the manner of Helen Burns.
