Thank ye!

 Happy Thanksgiving! I'm especially grateful that I did not appear to get a concussion after I banged my poor brainbox yesterday. I'm also grateful that Austen's 'Persuasion' is behind me. Nothing could persuade me to read it again.

 Dinner at Mom's this evening. Neko's wandering around wondering why I haven't yet fed her. About half an hour to go before then. Nothing like a four day work week. The weather is going to be nice this week coming up. Another thing to be grateful for.

  All the best to you, my two or three followers. If you're from the States, your turn will come for the turkey! So, that's all for now

BYE.

Austen

 So I started reading 'Persuasion' by Jane Austen. The last published book by most authors is usually worth looking into. Perhaps not Robert Jordan's last efforts (but Sanderson took over that ponderous task), but I haven't wasted my time with Wheel of Time since 'Crossroads of twilight'. I think that's what it was called

 But back to Austen. Before I took up 'Persuasion', I read a book called 'Victorian religion'. All the authors of the time discussed vicars and curates in their novels. Austen was no different. I wonder if she mentions them in this novel. Oh, and I hope the two or three followers still wasting their time have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

 We celebrate it in October, y'see. My cat is getting peckish. Pain in the butt. About an hour to go before breakfast.

BYE.
