Thanksgiving....The older I get, the less I understand my family. After I wrote the previous blog I felt it was a bit depressing, and it's not that bad...esp not compared to some...but still. In any case, Turkey day was alright. Went amazingly well in fact, for something that was thrown together at the last minute. "Hosted" by my lazy, alcoholic, freeloading great uncle, taken care of by his siblings. Hmm. I earned another bit of wisdom today....I re-learned that as an adult, or at least a good one, you gotta "suck it up" Never in my short life have I understood why people do stupid chit, or stuff they KNOW is harmful to themselves or others....Especialy when they paraded around their wrongdoings for all to see.
Yesterday at Turkey Day...and Today, at my great-uncles "Turkey Day Part II", I realized (again) that life is too short to let other peoples stupid shit stress you out. If I can just keep from forgetting that, I'll be a step ahead for once. That sounds really familiar.... I also keep forgetting the part emotions play in these things. I have been even more of a straight, no b.s. kinda guy than I used to be...because of all the b.s. I was forced to go thru. I usually don't think in terms of feelings, but right or wrong. Maybe that's part of my problem. Too much thinking. Sleep Now.
