No Halloween, No Thanksgiving this year

Which sounds so much more depressing than it actually is.

As for Halloween,
I was tired and didn't feel like going to the only bar in town that acually celebrates it.
So, in traditional old lady fashion, I was in bed and comfortablement ready to doze off at around 10:30.
And so, Halloween came and went with not a sniffle of notice or dissapointment.

As for Thanksgiving,
I decided to save the 2 days of cooking and 200 euros (what it typically costs me to put a Thanksgiving dinner together) and eat meatloaf leftovers, in bed, with JD, watching TV on November 23rd.

What is sad is that it didn't even hit me that it was Thanksgiving until around 2 in the afternoon.
I suppose one of the hazards of living in France. Without all the turkey decorations everywhere, you'd forget too.


So, i guess in certain terms I'm saving my festivitie feelings for Christmas. For which I'm going to spend it with my family. The first one in seven years. Yeah, it was time.
I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait. Over-exaggerated commercialism here i come! Well, I'm looking forward to that and of course the a-do with the family.
But really, the most important of all...
