    Thanksgiving is around the corner and soon Christmas

    Do you have any plans for Thanksgiving or Christmas, if you don't celebrate either, anything you look forward to in the next several weeks?
    Christmas

    What is the one thing you look most forward to? Christmas Lights, I love Christmas lights and the decorations, Food is pretty good too.

    What is the least? I don't look forward to boneheads trying to kill themselves and each other over a parking lot, for black friday sigh... every year, every year!

    Who is your favorite relative you'll see? Cousin Adrian

    Who is your least? Aunt Lita

    Also how do you Travel, Plain, Trains or Automobile? Driving.

    Yeah I love that movie!

    My plans for Thanksgiving are work. I have to rebuild a huge number of clustered and non-clustered indexes in a 4tb Sql database for a client to get their sales tables out of partitions and into the primary data file. Unfortunately, clustered index rebuilds are long and disable access to the table, so I have to do it when most of their stores aren't open...hence a holiday. Luckily my partner will be visiting his family down south so I'll have the house to myself to work without feeling guilty.

    Christmas will be spent as normal, with my partner at home and our two Shibas.

    What do I look forward to? The holiday spirit, the snow, the cold.

    I like the spirit of them both, The family get together, the food, decorations, etc. Great time of the year.

    I really like the movie also. One of the best performances by John Candy and Steve Martin. Another one I like is Family Christmas Vacation , Chevy Chase. Both are timeless Classics.

    Along with Easter, Christmas and Thanksgiving round out my favorite holidays of the year!
