Never Again

I will never ever again work a Friday and then a Saturday in a row. It makes my brain melt and me come close to a total breakdown...
Its like the worst ever, anyway I think that I am going to just say that has for as interesting goes the later it gets the weirder the people are.

So here is the super sweet thing that we did tonight this poor guy was sent by his wife to find some books and after two hours he couldn't find them so I went and looked and found one but not both. So after he left i found the other one. so i checked it out and then we placed a hold for him.. that's how slow Saturdays are.

We also had a pilgrim and Indian run by the desk..ask Kimberly about that one.

The statues have been wrapped for the game agaisnt Utah and I think that is really silly....

So I would like to pose a question to my fellow co-workers. What is your Thanksgiving wish if you get the wishbone this year? and What was your best Thanksgiving ever?

Well when i was around 13 my grandparents came out to watch us when my mom went to visit my dad at some port-call (when the boats pulls in) at some foreign place. Well it was over thanksgiving break and my Grandparents wanted to go and visit my Aunt who lived in Glendale California at the time. So we drove from San Diego to Glendale in a cramped Truck and RV. So it was the three of us Me, my brother John and Sunnie. We had never really been to a Family Thanksgiving because we hadn't lived close enough, needless to say it was the worst one we had ever had. Not only were we treated like toddlers but we had to participate in some random traditions. Later that night we all got together and dicussed what we believed the greatest thanksgiving was.. Which is as follows

While livinig in Maine I think, My dad decided that he would sign us up to eat dinner at some OSA (i think military term) anyway they had asked for volunteers and my Father didnt want us to miss an opportunity signed us up. So come thanskgiving we didnt have anything planned for dinner and so we went to where this dinner was going to be. Well after driving through the rundown scary part of town we found it. My father went in to investiagte and came out with a grimacy look on his face. It was a dinner for the homeless veterans and it smelled strong with smoke, which makes my mom really sick. So without any dinner plans we traveled to the nearest Super Walmart and were allowed to choose on main dish item and one desseret item. My brother got a 3 gallon ice cream thing which was quite big because he was tiny then. I choose some apple pie and pototoes, My dad choose Chocolate cake and we got a turkey and some other things. When we got home and had everything made it was later at night. However I remember my dad using a cookie sheet to eat a little bit of everything desseret and then we have a picture of him leaning back in a chair, stuffed. All the kids agreed that it was the best ever.

However over seas my parents were at some asian resturant with bugs on the floors and walls telling my dads shipmates what thier worst thanksgiving was which happened to be the kids favorite. We sooned learned this a few years later when we were in Hawaii telling our thanksgiving stories to some poor college students who where celebrating with us at the time. To this day we still talk about the best/worst thanksgiving ever and how it just made our childhood that much more amazing and unlike anyone elses.

Just wait to hear my three top Christmases. They are even better!
