let me be your comet, i will fly

First of all, happy Thanksgiving. We had kind of a strange one this year at the Carroll house. As far as my memory goes back, Thanksgiving has always been a time of having way too many people eating dinner at our table (or sometimes tables.) We usually have our own full-size family of 2 parents, 5 sons, 2 to 3 wives, and a handful of kids, but then my mom also tends to invite over everyone she can think of to join in. This year, we were gonna skip all that and drive down to my brother's restaurant in Carlsbad, but changed plans last minute to stay home and do the usual. It was hardly usual though. We ended up with just my parents, my brother Travis, our friend Steve, and me. It was pretty relaxing being able to watch TV and talk without all the commotion, but it was a little strange.

The rest of my Thanksgiving break so far has been playing Wii, drinking cider, watching Party Down, and working on music in my room. That's kinda nice since it's the opposite of last weekend, which was the largest concentration of physical activity I've had in the past year. Maybe not that much compared to a normal person, but I did part of a Spartacus workout on Saturday, then bike riding, then 2-on-2 basketball Sunday, then Xbox Kinect (which is surprisingly good and pretty tiring), then more Spartacus.

I haven't written on here in a while and I'm starting to remember why. Time to go do something else.

Top 5 reasons I'm looking forward to December:
1. KROQ's Almost Acoustic Christmas show
2. Inception on DVD
3. Christmas
4. New Christmas songs from Coldplay and the Killers
5. New Year's Eve
