***Today is the day most people take that moment to realize the holiday season (7.0 code for your timesheet) is coming with Thanksgiving being tomorrow (although some people had their Christmas lights up for a month already but that’s another matter for another day). Today’s Friday Email is all about “Thanksgiving Moments.” Have a great weekend!***
Thanksgiving has a lot of great moments. You turn on the Thanksgiving Day Parade and it’s fun to watch. You turn on football and it’s fun to watch (if it’s not the NY teams playing). On Friday, Moise said What’s 7 days from yesterday. I said it’s 6 days from today (or Thanksgiving ironically). Moise said if someone doesn’t like you, they try to avoid your face (so I guess those relatives you don’t get along with aren’t going to show up for Thanksgiving). Junior asks Moise a question. Moise answers honestly. Junior didn’t like his answer and said I don’t like greedy people. Moise says Junior if I offer you a $10 bill or a $20 bill which would you take. Junior says $20 (without hesitation – got to pay for all that Thanksgiving food). Junior says 5 random things to Moise in 10 seconds. Moise is overwhelmed and confused (like on Thanksgiving what do I eat there’s so many choices of food.) Someone called me and asked for help with their timesheet. I gave it. They said let’s be honest I’m going to mess this up and call you back (ok just don’t call me on Thanksgiving though). A friend of mine said “the wolf who cried sheep”. Uh they meant the boy who cried wolf. Would a wolf really cry about a sheep? Scary sheep? Wonder if they confuse chicken with turkey on Thanksgiving too. Moise gets up to answer the door, but nobody is there. He’s hearing things. A ghost Moise. It’s Thanksgiving, not Halloween. It was 11:30AM and Moise said he was hungry. I told him it’s too early for lunch and not my fault you didn’t eat breakfast. He said he just ate his breakfast. At 11:30, Moise? Are you one of those people that eats all 3 meals in a row and not the rest of the day? I wonder how that works on Thanksgiving. I asked Junior if he wanted some of my onion rings. He said no, I’m trying not to eat those. Ok if I hold them over your nose, will that make it more tempting? He said yes, so please don’t. I put them right in front of him. They are harder to resist than a Thanksgiving turkey. Moise wants his traditional free Dunkin drink and bagel on Thanksgiving Eve. He asked me about it last week already (how come he doesn’t forget that?). I brought Damian over and he played with the kids. We had to go home but Abby says 5 more minutes. Ok, I stayed 5 more minutes and then she said 5 more minutes (I think this is a trick). They fed Damian goldfish crackers not turkey. Abby had a doctor’s kit and got a saw and used it to cut my wrist off. What kind of doctor’s kit has a saw in it? Then Abby took my temperature and said I have a fever and that she has to cut my ear off. She comes at me with a pair of scissors. This toy doctor’s kit seems scary. Abby might cut the Thanksgiving turkey with all the tools in that doctor’s kit. Now when it comes to doing your timesheet, please remember I won’t be thinking about timesheets on Thanksgiving (nor will you). Please do your timesheet on time today and remember if you go to the doctor and they pull out a saw and sharp scissors they probably went to the same medical school that Abby went to.
Have a great weekend and Happy Thanksgiving!
