Since we’ve been married, my wife and I have a tradition with our friend(also known as our maid-of-honor) of hitting the day after thanksgiving sales. This day starts Thanksgiving night when go through the sale ads time and time again looking for all of our must-have items. This morning for the fourth year in a row we went again getting to Circuit City at 4am. After waiting in line for an hour there and getting the $20 DVD player for her classroom we head to Staples. There’s where we got the fun stuff, the $20 DVD burner for the computer, the $3 spindles of blank DVDs, the $10 512MB USB drives, the FREE paper shredder(did we really need it? no but it was free), and the $15 512MB Compact flash. After unsuccesfully hitting a couple more stores we are back in bed by 8am and sleep till noonish.
The remainder of the day is spent watching some TV and then getting ready to go to Buca di Beppo’s for our friend’s sister’s birthday dinner. Food was pretty good, atmosphere and service were excellent, this should be a great place for the small group to come for a night out.
Now to catch up on the day’s sports and go to bed, another day to be thankful for!

First off for those of you who actually see this on Thanksgiving, Happy Thanksgiving! Secondly how in the world did you find me? (Please let me know) For everyone else I hope you had a great day with friends and family, I know I did!(Any day that is set aside for eating and being thankful works in by book)

As I enter this world of blogging I thought today would be a great to begin. I want to start by giving thanks to all of you who I have learned so much from and one day I hope to be a help to others as you have been to me. I have listed some of my favorites and linked to one of their posts that I either found very useful or was just one of my favorites. So drum roll please in no paticular order:
