Thanksgiving Wishes

Happy Thanksgiving, all.

Sorry I haven't been posting lately. Let's just say school and work have been about all I can handle in the past few weeks.

So I just got back from Pasadena's Central Park (not quite as cool as New York's in case anyone is wondering) where I was attempting to feed the homeless this morning. I say "attempting" because I think there were more people there to feed than to be fed. Seriously, we were falling over ourselves waiting in line for our chance to feed the poor. And I still had to prepare some food for today so I had to leave before my turn. Not cool.

But I got to hang out with some cool folks while we waited (I organized a school of psychology peace and justice concerns event to do this) and I felt that I left the homeless in some good hands - at least for today. It's quite sad that the poor don't have even a tiny fraction of this support from the community on the other 364 days of the year.

At any rate, I hope you all have a great day filled with the love of friends and family. And don't eat too much. Even if it is the American way.
