Tara's secret plan, revealed! Either that, or she just wanted to work in peace.
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving which is sort of a weird holiday. We celebrate family and the things we are thankful for, but it's also kind of a celebration of the beginning of the end of an indigenous population. So it's always held this weird spot for me. On the one hand, I really love eating irresponsible amounts of food with family. On the other hand, I can't help but feel anger at the way Native Americans have been treated in this country, even today.
Even so, though its roots probably aren't the most festive ever, the sentiments of Thanksgiving are really nice. And then we ruin it by buying a shit ton of useless crap on Friday. GAH! I'm gonna stop. I just can't enjoy anything without getting all emo and reflective and bleh.
