- Kleenex. My sister-in-law loves her husband enough to wash his hankies. I just don't love the environment that much. I love Kleenex.
- Shoes. At my training conference with people from the Caribbean and Central America, they had us line up in order of how many shoes we own. I didn't even know how many I owned. All except one of them only owned one to three pairs of shoes. I came home and counted. I own 31 pairs. And that's without the shoes I inherited from my grandmother-in-law.
- Weird kinds of squash. My farm is still pumping us full of squash. Today I tried delicata and sweet dumpling. The description on the web of sweet dumpling is "sweet as honey and shaped like a dumpling." Very sensual for a squash.
- Lemurs. They're so cute. And plushy.
- That I haven't had to kill a spider in years. I'm so spoiled, but gratefully spoiled.
- Toes. I like toes. Not yours. I mean, I'm sure they're fine. But I like Mike's and mine.
- Indoor plumbing. I have a friend whose parents still don't have it.
- White and Nerdy. Can I tell you that I think Weird Al looks oddly attractive as a G?
And the number one unconventional thing I'm thankful for?
- Chick-Fil-A Ice Dream shakes. (You knew it was going to be food.) I love how the one healthy fast food chain added a 900-calorie dream shake for me to add to my slim grilled chicken. You rock, Chick-Fil-A!

At the Dragonforce concert the other friday, there was a 6'8"-ish man that looked a lot like Weird Al from the UHF days that parked himself in front of my 5'9" brother. He was pretty thin and had a huge amount of long curly hair, it was like a fan brush angling out as it went down, so it wasn't just his head that was in my brother's way, but his huge curtain of hair. I should have taken a picture.
Arghhh...I despise weird Al, and how he represents curly-haired people to the rest of the world!
Jen, I hate Weird Al too. Not because of how he represents curly haired people though. Just because I don't like him. I LOVE your curly hair, and you represent your kind well.
What?!!!! How could I have been friends with you both all this time without knowing this crucial information. UHF rules my life. I'm so sad. I feel oddly disconnected from you now. Things will never be the same.
Amber--I love Weird Al too. Too bad you have such bad taste in friends. Just kidding girls!
Am, to prevent this from happening again, you should have a screening test for friends. Have you heard Weird Al's new song? It is called Whatever You Like--it is pretty funny.
I am Thankful for the movie Blue Hawaii with Elvis Presley.
