T'sgiving and the Day After

It's kind of pleasant here at work the day after T'sgiving---esp. as 3 of us (the few, the proud) went out for a leisurely Pizza House lunch. Now it's a little hard to motivate for the afternoon, though.

Mmmmmmmmmm.

A couple of guests had a little much to drink, but it was a pretty good time. I dig going to the mod ranch house out in hills of the wealthy, across the river. LaMont throws a good shindig.
