turkeys and meatballs and ham...OH MY!

so thanksgiving really bit me in the butt because i could have worked 8 hours on monday but i won't even get stat for it because i haven't worked at the shoe store long enough to qualify. and then superstore decided to only give me 9 hours next week. what? i'm trying to build a house/get married/go on a honeymoon/pay off student loans? what? what? thanks a lot guys. i am so THANKFUL. actually i really am looking forward to this weekend, especially going to Pine Falls with Phil and his family (i get to meet the infamous uncle ralph), it just sucks that i'm losing so many hours. but at supper today with my grandparents we all had to go around and say what we were thankful for, and, cheesy as it is, i like that we still do that because it really makes me think. i almost said "having a job" but then i realized that i'm not really thankful as in, well, i am so glad that i have it, but at the same time having to work two jobs does suck. so i thought about what makes me happy and kind of usually picks me up, and i said "music". and it's true. my life without music would be like rice without salt...like the stuff we had for salt today...

oh AND i changed my commenty things so that janet and julia and whoever else reads this can comment if you wish.
