Your difficult Thanksgiving reminds me of a conversation I had recently. My friend said that you start to resent your parents when the parents demand that you "make the family whole" or make the parents' lives complete at your expense. But then - where else would you go at Thanksgiving?

The Chinese place, with everyone else who wants to get away from Thanksgiving. I don't know if it's a regional thing or not, but us grinches congregate at them at Thanksgiving and Christmas everywhere I've lived. Shared holiday grumps and delicious egg rolls. Not quite Hallmark channel, but I kind of look forward to it after Halloween now.But then - where else would you go at Thanksgiving?
