Thanksgiving 2003

Thanksgiving was quiet and relaxing. Instead of watching football like most families, we watched Pride & Prejudice (with Colin Firth as the ever-so-serious Mr. Darcy).

It was as though my sister read my mind when she borrowed it from the library. The book has been on my mind a lot recently. If I was prone to paranoia, I might believe the video was part of a sibling conspiracy. For while I was fully engrossed in the miniseries, she was diligently writing and watching. I must also confess that I slipped into a short pre-tryptophan nap at one point, which was either induced by turkey anticipation or a comfortable recliner.

A NaNoWriMo update: I just reached 40,000 words around noon. The finish line is in sight. The time to sprint might be now.
