Today I give thanks for someone who proved today this it is, evidently, possible to sleep like a log... as many members of my family tested this with boisterous car races & crashes, awkward dance offs, clumsy ski races, frustrating rounds of golf, violent dart throwing by uber competitive six year olds, children crying, screaming and cursing their defeats, cries of injustice, youTube music videos, and the world's loudest and longest running twin fire alarm system apparently not equipped with an off button.
I am not giving thanks in the altruistic sense that I am grateful someone was able to rest during a loud day at the condo but, rather, that I feel no guilt over failing to provide a restful environment for someone working the night shift.
So, let's face it: What I am really thankful for today is not feeling guilty.
However, this begs the question: who the hell is going to protect me if someone breaks in?
