Thanks (Brian Katcher)

 Ah, the holidays. It can be a stressful time of the year, what with gift buying (mental note: do NOT by the wife fancy hair combs this year), visitors (I get it Jacob, but if you're going to be bringing three friends, you could have called and warned me), and contemplating one's place in the universe (she was a librarian in the alternate world. A LIBRARIAN!). Still, it's a time to sit back and count one's blessing. I, for instance, am blessed that I didn't have to go to work today due to the Midwest snow storm. There is nothing like that phone call. It's like crack.

So, let's get back to the good things that have happened to me this year (a new book contract is absent from this list).

*My three pregnant friends all gave birth to healthy babies. None of them in mangers.
*My grandparents celebrated their 74th wedding anniversary. They still live on their own.
*Thanks to ancestry.com, I learned quite a bit about my father's side of the family. My 3x grandmother was named Oodle.

Oh, and these guys:

  1. I'm thankful that firearms are no longer part of the Thanksgiving tradition in my family...Then In all honesty, I was pretty much responsible for all terror inflicted as a result. Now I have to restrain myself when pie is served. How times have changed.
