Thankful list, an attempt to count blessings

I am thankful for:

  1. Boomerang showing every single episode of The Flintstones ever.
  2. Dad being healthy enough to spend another Thanksgiving with us and my mom. Hug your parents people, not everyone gets to this year.
  3. Jonathan Lethem’s Motherless Brooklyn, it’s really fucking good.
  4. For my beautiful sisters, even Sister #4 — the great imposer, and the men they married.
  5. Did I mention every episode ever of the Flintstones, IN ORDER!
  6. Icy cold Diet Cokes with Lime and the health not to barf them back up
  7. Kelly, FFJ, the Chiliwinkers, Seamus, Al, the cutest girl on earth™, BFK, Wolfdogg. . . I could go on and on about my friends.
  8. $50 Cheeseckaes.
  9. My impeccable taste in music.
  10. My extreme self-discipline that allowed me to resist the siren song of Mike “We’re on a Break” Doughty being in St. Paul on Sunday and keep the Make Sweet Sweet Love to Me™ vibe on the shelf.
  11. Princess Jaycie, Boo, The Peanut, Nolie bugs, and Liam Piam Pudding Pop, life is much better with kids in it.
  12. 50-degree sunshine on my face in November.
  13. My Rainmanlike ability to correctly identify the plot of a Flintstones episode based on seeing only the first minute.
  14. Our awesome Chromey vs.Chromey t-shirts.
  15. You.

    Aww shucks, you’re gonna make me cry. This was the weepiest Thanksgiving ever.

    The Flintstones is the greatest show of all time – all 166 episodes of it.

    17. “High Fidelity” on DVD, which I just put into the DVD player.

    Is it sick and wrong that I get a little turned on by men who watch High Fidelity over and over again?

    I meant to type “Of course not”, but “O” may be more appropriate.

    it’s more intriguing that’s for damn sure.
