Either I'm getting worse at HTML or something is going on with LJ because it keeps eating my entries and spitting them out as gibberish.

HELLOOOO EVERYBODY! Welcome to our annual Thanksgiving Day running monologue from your favorite rambler! This year we are back to regular turkey because I spend $500 getting my computer fixed and therefore decided I didn't like the Turkducken enough to spend the extra money on it. Maybe next year!
