random shit i'm thankful for this year:
randomly coming across your coming of age post via a completely unrelated google search. a few more clicks here and there and it was your unfailing eloquence and good humour that had me hooked onto klog.
i'm nominating that as klog post of the year.
hey, maureen dowd also makes regular guest appearances in our saturday paper too!
Happy Thanksgiving, Kelly and Rob! I hope you have an enjoyable holiday. :-)
Sending love from the "Fayder" clan!
so I was out of town...and I give thanks for guacomole....that is, GOOD guacamole too.
Also thankful for people like you in the world! Happy turkey Day Kelly and Rob!
What a wonderful list. I particularly like that you have two newly transformed mousers, that you are thankful for Tina Fey, and a big shout out to Etsy!
Hi Kel.
I am sure that the mouser thing is just a phase and that both cats will in the next few weeks become bored with the whole catching mice thing and return to sleeping for 25 hours a day.
You make an excellent point: Pepper mills! (hee hee)
