Thanksgiving: so much to be thankful for

This weekend has been particularly positive. Laura and I had a great Saturday together testing cars: Nissan Cube and Volkswagen Tiguan. The Cube is a great deal of fun to drive. The seats are really the weakest link. Every time I went around a corner, my whole body started sliding on the seat. This is a big draw back for me, but I love the versatility of the car. It has more then ample room for 4 adults, not a great deal of storage if you've got a full passenger load, but we usually only travel with the 3 of us anyways. I only wish they would allow the consumer the ability to upgrade not only the electronics, but also the interior. They would get a much broader audience.

After this we went off to see "Fame", which had some good tunes, but the dialogue and character development was extremely week. The TV show wasn't amazing, but it was like this movie, entertaining.

Sunday was very successful. Had a great breakfast of soft boiled eggs, bacon, and whole wheat toast while watching what must be my favorite program: Sunday Morning on CBS. Then it was off to prepare for my Open House, and lunch with my buddy Joe. The Open House was a great deal of fun, where I met several very nice people. Finally, the day ended with a Birthday party for Dad. Kate and Rob with family came down from Waterloo, and it was so nice to see everyone.

Today is turkey day. It has been a while since our last turkey dinner, so my mouth is already watering. I hope who's ever reading this, has a tremendous day as well.
