Post Thanksgiving Thoughts

So, I know this is supposed to be the time where you give thanks and reflect on all your blessings. I get that. But the holidays can be a real pain sometimes. Like - honestly more trouble than anything. This Thanksgiving my family saw fit to list all the things that they are NOT thankful for about me. Yes - like you - I thought that was really sweet of them.

So that got me thinking - how can I repay these lovely people for the joy they brought me on this fine thanksgiving?

So I've come up with an idea. Can there be a holiday dedicated to the things that really and truly suck? Like a WTF Day? And you could still eat a big feast, but then you'd also get to go over all the things that happened or didn't happen for the year that really just suck ass. And if you wanted - you could invite family over - especially if they're on the list - just to bring them joy and happiness.

So let's list some of things this year that we're not so thankful for - I'll even go first.

Mojito's 2008 WTF/this is some B.S. list:
  • how come I didn't get Beyonce's thighs? I did some squats!! this is total BS.
  • what happened to my engagement/wedding?
  • how did I end up in the ER twice?
  • wait.............this is a raise? really?
  • rogaine & rutgers (don't ask)
  • boyfriends with secret kids
Oh - and just so I don't seem ungrateful & bitter, I'm very very thankful for my friends, family (not the a-holes who ruined my thanksgiving), health & the little bit of sanity I'm still holding on to.

Your turn - please post comments with your 2008 WTF/this is some BS lists! Please! Please. If I don't get some comments it's going to start affecting my self esteem.

XOXO
