so, i'm thankful for: my wonderful, glorious friends that i had a great Thanksgiving, and that i had friends who could and would share their house with me. my family, who can and will do most anything to help me out. i still wonder if i was dropped on the front porch by aliens, but they're great, and we make each other laugh and take care of each other and make goofy jokes in a way only family can. that i have the luxury of being able to take the next month off, spend it with said friends and family, and job hunt in a fairly leasurely fashion. that i've got myself on track for getting back into school full time, and that i finally know what i want to study. that my mental health, while it still has its ups and downs, is doing remarkably well these days. that i'm an adult, which, while it has its not so great points, also means that i can damned well eat cheesecake for breakfast if i want to. :) that i'm loved, and loved well, from more than one direction; that i'm loved by folks who can take me for me and run with it; that i might just get am getting a crack at something i've wanted for awhile.
