I didn't put up all the things I'm thankful for. Many other people seem to have done so. I wonder if I should. I am thankful for things, and for people. Just because I don't write them down doesn't mean I'm not. But I wonder if I ought to write them down, even though it doesn't change the fact that I'm thankful, because it changes how people see themselves or me, maybe. I don't know. Perhaps...
It seems like the kind of thing you see on an album, the list of people the band thanks. It just seems strange to me. I don't know.
- Thankful...
- that my dad didn't ruin the turkey.
- that Let it Be...Naked is out.
- for DDR.
- for someone to dance with.
- for stuffing.
- that the mashed potatoes turned out.
- that I know more than I did before.
- for memories.
