Fever 1, Thanksgiving 0

Oh, it's not that I'm not thankful. Believe me, I am. But I'd find it a bit easier to be more thankful had I not spent an hour in the middle of the night running all the hot water out of the house trying to steam the croupy cough out of my child. She's much better today, but I went ahead and made a doctor appointment. Pneumonia was only three months ago.

So, the Thanksgiving open house we were going to last night? Yeah, not happening.

The lovely Thanksgiving dinner we were going to eat out with my parents tomorrow? Probably not.

I plan on being up at the asscrack of dawn tomorrow to get to the gourmet grocery and buy out the prepared foods case. At least I have a whole bunch of champagne!!!
