Hey, there's a new 2Pac album out! I think that's his third one this year. He's a very productive dead guy.

Okay, Thanksgiving worked out just peachy. I got a call from my drummer that morning with an invite (We just heard your dinner party was cancelled! Come chow with us!) which made my fucking day. I drank lots of champagne and established a glowing perma-grin which lasted until I woke up the next morning with an ass-fucker hangover.

The next day, my lady friend and I celebrated our own Thanksgiving, since she was working on the big day. She chopped up our Halloween pumpkin, which was bigger than the devil himself, and baked us a pumpkin pie. Turkey and fixins and good lovin. No wine. Oh no, no no. Neither of us could even look at booze. But it was still a great day.

Except that while all the goodies were baking we watched The Pianist. Buzzkill.

Saturday was our Christmas tree buying extravaganza. Since we have 12' ceilings, I wanted to get a huge Nutcracker-style tree. We found a lush 9.5' one and called someone over to get the price. $185. One hundred and eighty fucking five dollars for a tree.

No thank you. We got a 7' tree. How can people spend that much on something they're going to THROW AWAY in a month? Hell.

And so, I get to hang my glitter pig ornament again. Life is good. Hope you too had a nice weekend.
