Woke up at 6am to get ready to pick "grandma" up at the DFW airport. We left at 6:40 for the 40 + minute drive if traffic cooperates. To my delight traffic was running at about 1% of normal. BUT, this is the North Dallas area and you can have a traffic jam at any time. Almost 1/2 way into my trip I started seeing brake lights and traffic slowing down. I quickly got into the right lane and was able to sneak by the fresh accident. It seems like a full sized GMC truck pulverized the rear end of a Chevy Avalance. There were a few other cars stopped in the middle of the highway, some of them stopped to asssist. A few people's holidays were ruined.
What movie? "You people can keep this city!"
Picked up grandma and made it home by 9am.
My ideal day will go like this:
Blog, go to the store to get a newspaper and the gravy my wife forgot to get. Then spread out in the floor during the NFL Today pregame show. Eat a few snacks and fall asleep off and on during the boring Lions/Falcons game. Eat our downsized version of T-day dinner. Watch the Cowboys/Broncos game and maybe go see a movie tonight with my wife.
Ideal dinner: Turkey(white), mashed potatoes, gravy and stuffing. A nice dinner roll would be fine. Nothing else. I don't do adult beverages on T-day and don't really care for dessert. Also leave off the cranberry sauce, sweet potatoes/yams, salads.
Have a great day! Wear lose fitting close so you can eat all you like and not ruin your holiday

Reply to billyV: With another clue to the movie, YOU ARE RIGHT!

A whole day about food...perfect for YOU!
Sounds like you had a good day. I had a good day as well. Especially compared to our thanksgiving two years ago when we were picking up all our stuff all over the highway in the rain.
