Anyone else here not have a traditional Thanksgiving dinner tonight? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Or am I alone? I had a taco.

I had to work and I told the family to go ahead and start dinner without me. They were done by the time I arrived but saved me leftovers.

Brad.

Did your mother have to work?

No, she was off, it was just that nobody in my family had any money to buy dinner, since we helped my brother out financially with his move this month. It's okay though, I wasn't really in much of a Turkey mood tonight anyway. Fortunately, Donna saved me a plate that she's bringing over tomorrow, so atleast I'll have a nice lunch.

Another thing I've been curious about, does anyone here have their own Thanksgiving dinner traditions which vary from the norm of Turkey, stuffing, etc?? I know that some people's traditions are different based on Religious reasons, ethnic reasons etc, so If you have your own thanksgiving traditions, what are they?

You're always so upbeat, Brad, no matter what. That's one of the things that I love about you. One day, I just know it, you and I are going to have a Thanksgiving dinner together. That's very sweet of Donna. Enjoy your lunch tomorrow.

Technically, yes. For dinner, we had Burger King. We had the turkey dinner at noon.

Awwww, thank you Janice, that means alot.

I know I'm not always the most optimistic person about certain things, but I'm certainly not going to let a lack of a meal get me down, especially when I truly have alot to be thankful for!!

I too believe with all my heart that you and I will one day share a Thanksgiving dinner together, and I know it'll be the best Thanksgiving in the world!!!!!!!!!!!

That's another reason I refuse to let today get me down. How can I possibly let it get me down, when I have soooo much to look forward to?

Sounds good. We'll have to be there in spirit today, but one day, we'll all break bread together. Garlic bread.

Yeah, when I saw the picture, I knew I had to make it my av. It's been kind of a rough week for me, so I put it up mostly to make me laugh.

That was so sweet of you to send me a postcard, Thank you!!!

I haven't checked the mail for days, (As I mentioned, it's been kind of a rough week for me, and I haven't done much of anything, which explains my lack of presence here at S.O. of late. Now you got me excited though, I'm going to go check!!!

Brad Russ · 11-28-2008, 02:33 AM

I got it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you soooooooooooooo much Janice!!!!!!

I'm so glad to have you back in my life as well, and it's no exaggeration when I say, that life was not the same without you!!!!!!! You're the best!!!

You're welcome. Good old Fenway Park, lol. I'm glad you posted tonight. I was started to worry a bit about you. The ups and downs and all arounds. I'm there too.

It's just an off year for you (and me) this Thanksgiving. Next year, you'l have your own place, be settled, and having your family over for dinner. Better times are coming, right at you!
