Ours apparently has to be over by 2:00 because of my gosh-darned cousin and her husband.  Pff.

2pm? That is ridiculous.

I'd be thankful for it though.

You don't use freedom Penguin. First you demand it, then you have it.
No using. That's not what freedom is for.

I actually had a four-day weekend for Canadian Thanksgiving, too.
Of course, I'm probably the only person in the entire school who knows about Canadian Thanksgiving.

If you can profess knowledge of a holiday, you get time off.

Guy Fawkes Night, Talk Like a Pirate Day, Leif Erikson Day, International Suit-Up Day, and Canadian Thanksgiving are all the obscure holidays I know.

It means that we have to get up at ungodly hours to cook, so... not so great.  Especially non-great because my grandmother is pissy about sharing her stove.

I really can't stand Thanksgiving, because it means a two-hour drive both ways for two days in a row to the same town, but to visit different sides of the family.

Why would you want to take International Talk Like a Pirate Day off?  It's a great excuse to Talk Like a Pirate at work or school!

When I got home today there was a box on my porch full of canned goods and a turkey.
