Well, not all that ridiculous, really, but here's what ended up being wrong with my car: it forgot how to recognize the key. Apparently, the shop has had a number of similar models in with that same issue. On the one hand, an easy, cheap fix that I greatly appreciate. On the other hand, MY CAR FORGOT THAT MY KEY BELONGED TO IT. WTF?!

Grad school BFF came into town for Thanksgiving. She and favorite nephew have baked up a storm and are planning to watch football all day. J even gave them permission to use his projector and screen, which is rare, because J is not a football fan. We tried to watch the Macy's parade this morning, but failed at that. We're also having lots of fantasy football talk, because grad school BFF, favorite nephew, and I are in the same league. (I'm winning, so far. Who's number one? I'm number one!)

We're having a small group this year, and aren't eating until later. Right now I'm cooking potatoes while everyone else watches ridiculous YouTube videos (currently Fantasy Football Stereotypes). The rest of the family (who will be here) will drift in over the next hour or so. I probably need to find some sort of food. I've been up for awhile, and so far am living on water and Dr. Pepper.

I hope today is good for you, whatever day it is in your life.
