Young Women Writers

I took the howliday of… because that’s what I wanted to do (In fact, I take many days off because that’s what I want to do… but shhhhhhhh don’t tell my boss, she’ll be angry!)

That being said, I hope all of you were able to grit your teeth and get through the howliday. Hopefully, Aunt Ophelia didn’t drink too much wine and start stripping to Tom Jones music in the kitchen (I hate it when that happens!) and hopefully Grandpa’s farts weren’t to noxious this year. You never can tell, what with the green bean casserole and all.

I enjoyed a pretty uneventful day. We ate dinner, didn’t much talk and then went into different rooms to watch television…. depressing really, but at least no one wanted to play charades.

Today, “Black Friday” the holiest of shopping days was spent inside… I didn’t want to get trampled by the put bulls out there today. Though, I’m sure I missed lots of bargain shopping (I do love me some bargain shopping!). Oh well, I don’t have the money to throw away on a new television, even if it is half-off!

So, I spent the day sending writing submissions off to various literary journals and magazines… hoping that maybe this time someone will publish me. We shall see…..

For today’s writing assignment, I want you to do something fun! Tell me something you are NOT thankful for and you may do it in any form. I figured you’ve all done the thankful thing at the behest of your mothers-in-law and would enjoy the opportunity to talk about what you are not thankful for.

I am not thankful for an economy that is trying to drag me down. I am also not thankful for indigestion.
