Today has been a rather grumpy day around fandom, for various reasons. So now is the perfect time to ask... who's up for Thanksgiving?
A dear friend of mine, while able to visit her mother for the holiday, is not going to really be able to fully celebrate it, since she'll spend most of it in a nursing home or on the bus. Meanwhile, I know a lot of people in town won't be able to visit relatives, or because they are visiting relatives, won't be able to spend the holiday with loved ones. And hey, maybe some of you just want a free meal or a chance to celebrate with fellow geeks. That's cool too.
So, here's my offer. Anyone want to do Thanksgiving some day (or evening) after Thanksgiving at my place? (I'm in Astoria) I'm a good cook, and I'm happy to accomodate vegans, vegetarians and the lactose intolerant, if warned ahead of time. Obviously there won't be a whole turkey, but a turkey breast would not be out of the question. And fannish entertainment would be on tap to avoid those awkward "Uh, uh oh look at the game!" moments. (Feel free to suggest fannish entertainment options you prefer. Otherwise you will be subjected to my ideas.)
No, you don't need to bring anything but yourself unless you feel inspired. Bringing yourself would be more than enough.
There will be pie.
Interested? Let me know.
