So my friends and I decided that this year we were all too tired to bother cooking for Thanksgiving. Let's go out to a restaurant instead! It never occurred to us, living as we do in a tourist burg, that every freaking restaurant except the ones my friends all hate (Denny's, Cracker Barrel, and the Crab Shack) would be closed.

Here, the restaurants are always open. But Thanksgiving can present other perils. Once, long ago, a friend and I went to a nice little French restaurant for Thanksgiving. It was packed, and we had to share a table with a dorky guy taking his half-witted old mother out.

We decided to wait until tomorrow. Neither of us feel well, and the post-shopping traffic isn't worth fighting through just for a table at Friday's.
