post tryptophan-induced hibernation...

well its about 12:15pm on friday 'morning' and i just got up a little while ago. man its nice to be back home and catch up on sleep...not that i don't sleep relatively often in ann arbor, but at home there is no battle with the snooze button and no dungeon lab to go to every day.

break has been fun so far, and consisted of the typical david family activities for when the family comes home: sleeping, eating, going to a movie (or in this case, it will be multiple movies since sarah and i have quite the schedule planned). i think we have hung out with relatives on thanksgiving once in my entire life. they are just too spread out here in the US for us to effectively get together for such a short period of time. that and the david's are generally the travelers, and our other relatives like to stay where they are...so maybe we don't get together with family on turkey day out of protest. whatever...more food for me (and sarah doesn't mind taking out the extra pies).

things at home seem to be going well. the 50g fish tank i brought back in august (last time i was home) has only suffered minor casualties, and there are still 25+ fishes alive and doing well. jeevan (aka devil dog) has learned to be slightly more obedient, and at this rate should be acting like a normal dog by 2017. again for references as to what he looks like you can look earlier in this blog or see the griff in the third harry potter installment or the gamork in the neverending story.

after the usual turkey feast last night, our family went to see the movie yours, mine & ours. although the reviews for this flick were horrible, it was definitely the right movie to see with our family (those of you who know them can generally know why...that and it was rated PG). the plot was predictable (to regular film-goers) and straightforward, and had plenty of cheesy family stuff in it. either way, my parents enjoyed it quite a bit we (the siblings) thought it was pretty funny as well. dennis quaid did a good job of falling into stuff and hurting himself throughout the movie; but for a better performance by him i would highly suggest 'in good company' with topher grace and scarlett johanson.

ok well i need to get some food now, and see if me and my sisters will go straight to the movies, or if they will waste their time facing the shopping hordes first. hope you all had a good thanksgiving <:><
