My turkey came out really weird yesterday. I've never had such a strange bird. They must've really injected it with fat to plump it up or something, because there was more than 12 cups of juice/grease that came out of the pan. Then the meat all peeled away from the bones and it wouldn't slice. It just feel apart. It was good, just weird. It's not like I brought a weird off-brand or anything. It was a Honeysuckle White, just like I get every year. Oh, well. I also made this shrimp stuffing. I used tiny cocktail shrimp instead of large shrimp. That was soooo good.

Have you seen the new Hokey Pokey Elmo? I just saw a commercial for it. Too damn cute.

I'm also watching a French Vanilla Cool Whip commercial. I bought some of that for my pumpkin pie this year. It was quite tasty.

Why do people all flock to go shopping the day after Thanksgiving? Are the deals really worth it? I was watching the "mall parking reports" on the news this morning. I'm not going anywhere near a mall today. With leftovers and everyone at the malls, we're going to be really slow at work tonight. Whee.

Man, I really feel like crap today. I wish my lingering illness would just become full-blown sick and then I could get over it. I guess I better get dressed and try and get something done before I have to go to work.

Marcus and I don't really celebrate Valentine's Day, though. I know he loves me and I don't really need a phony holiday for him to show me that he does or vice versa. On that note, I have to go spend the evening at work. Everybody that does celebrate it, have a good holiday.
