Everyone has left. The house smells of cinnamon and garlic and sage and apples. (I really should cook more.) I have a ton of dishes to do, and the dishwasher isn’t working particularly well at the moment. But I don’t care. We spent the afternoon and early evening talking, laughing and eating good food. Few things are better than that.
I am so thankful for my family. To a person they are intelligent, funny, wonderful people, and I am extremely lucky to have wandered into their midst.
I am thankful for my friends, both in person and online. Friends know all your faults and still like you. This is a miracle, and not to be taken lightly.
I am thankful for those who take some time to read these insane ramblings. The web and weblogs in particular have changed my life, greatly for the better. Thank you all so much.
I am thankful for the web, which connects me to people in ways I could have never imagined, and gives me a living I love.
There’s so much more. But that’s a good start.
