Thanksgiving

In anticipation for the feasting holiday, I have done something I never have before. My idea originated from last year's experience on Thanksgiving. As always there was a feast with a large portion of my family in attendance. As I recalled the experience about a week ago, my mind came to the food. That is when I realized what an ungrateful person I was. My mom, aunt, and others had slaved to make this beautiful meal with numerous items and dishes and what did I do? I didn't even try most of them! Why? Well as I went through the buffet line set up in my aunt's kitchen I picked the items I knew I would like: potatoes, turkey, rolls. The basics. I ate my food... A couple people had gone back for seconds... Not me... I was FULL! My worst nightmare. I had not even eaten that much, but yet somehow I could not have crammed another bite for a few hours at least. How this happened, I'm not sure, but because of this, I have taken measures to prevent this from happening again this year. How you ask.... well I invented a machine that lets me eat as much as I want without getting full... No! That's preposterous! I've just been stretching my stomach out for the last week, eating just a little more than necessary at most meals... Pretty genius, right? Why didn't I post this earlier? Because I knew someone would steal my idea and take the credit... Not that anyone has even read this blog yet, but still it could have happened. So now, as you get full after round one this year, may your thoughts be turned to me and my enlarged stomach... Peace.
