happy thanksgiving!!

thanksgiving in japan is on the 23rd, but we all were set on celebrating it on the 24th. so before deciding on eating at the italian restaurant that we ate at, there was so much drama!

one of the guys wanted to set up a dinner at this bar that him and the other guys in the dohokan frequent. he was going to set up a deal with the owner, b/c they're friends, where for 4000 yen (about $40) there was going to be two hours of all of can eat food from the bar, which basically consisted of curry and nan and i think all you could drink. this gesture was very cool, but i was in agreeance with other people, who wants to eat dinner in a bar (which has rounded corners so it's so hard to sit down and i got a leg cramp just drinking there once) and just have curry and nan? not me, plus curry is the source of muddbutt. so i was like, do i really want to be uncomfortable, get a leg cramp and eat something that's going to give me "geri o shitemas"? NO FREAKIN WAY!!!!

so after a string of emails, some nasty, some saying that they wouldn't mind eating $40 curry, others saying that they wanted to eat other food, we all ate at this italian restaurant for thanksgiving. i didn't have turkey or chicken, which would be an obvious runner up to turkey, but BACON!!! well i had pasta carbonara which has bacon in it. mmmmm bacon...



but i kept on thinking about one of my favorite episodes of friends, "the one where ross got high." i just kept on replaying the part where ross and joey stop by monica's for dinner and they go:

ross: "wow, everything looks so nice!!"
joey: "and hey guys, HAPPY THANKSGIVING!"

and then the other part where everyones real feelings come out:

rachel: "i wasn't supposed to put meat in the triffle!"
joey: "i wannna goooo!!"
pheobe: "i love jacque cousteau!"

it's funnier when you watch it...

anyways happy thanksgiving
