Ha! Well, tough cookies, you're going to hear about it anyway. *snerk*
It all began on Wednesday when the Wrestler came home and ripped my Obama bumper sticker off my car. After that we went to see the new Bond movie, so the day wasn't a total waste (and I got a new bumper sticker from
baylorsr, so there. pfffbt)
Thursday began normally enough with me missing breakfast and then slaving away in the kitchen baking for the rest of the day. The Mum and I managed to set the oven on fire at one point (always remember to take the aluminum foil with the pie drippings on them out of the oven after you're done making pies. Fewer flames that way)
Then the Da undercooked the turkey. Luckily he realized that pretty quickly and put it back in the roasting oven to cook. But he proceeded to serve the dressing from the undercooked turkey to the rest of us. Thankfully, none of us got sick (not even our guest, I think) because we were all eating the cornbread stuffing that was cooked with the extra turkey breast in the grill outside. Thank goodness for the Mum's insistence that we have lots and lots of turkey leftovers.
It was funny when the Da realized about an hour after the guest left that he might have poisoned us all. Good going there, Da. ;-)
The day would have been memorable enough, but the true crazy wouldn't start until after the Wrestler left to go back to Ypsilanti.
( Cut for Rampant Insanity and Rage-Inducing Prejudice )
Once again, I get to be the adult in the family. Christmas is just going to be awesome. *facepalms*
On a brighter note, spent Friday with the Baylors. We decorated stockings in the evening and
baylorsr and I had a wonderful day of buying shoes and talking about crazy fannish things. It was delightful. It was a long day but a good one. All hail fangirls and their incredible power to make life better.
And all hail pie. Pie makes the world go round. nom nom nom nom =D
