Day full of sports

I'm enjoying my thanksgiving holiday! It's probably not helping my health though. I've been sitting around all day eating everything in sight and it's not even turkey day yet. The lack of walking to class probably isn't helping either. I'm sure by the time I get back to Troy i'll be a few (hopefully only a few) pounds heaver.

Today (unlike the days before it) I've actually tried to counteract this gaining weight process thats undoubtedly happening. My distant family got in town today and with us living closer to my other family for the first time ever I actually got to hang out with 2nd or 3rd cousins for the first time that wasn't actually thanksgiving day. Me, my cousin that lives next door and my two other cousins went to our uncles field across the road and played football. It was very fun! I realized how out of shape I am. I haven't ran so much in a long long time. (side note: maybe i should start doing active stuff at college...) When we finally got done I was so sweaty I had to go take a shower. Yeah it was that bad.

After that I just chilled and watched some basketball. A lot of basketball actually. For the first time in years (maybe ever) I'm actually interested in watching college basketball some other time than March. I also caught the NBA game.

I can't wait for tomorrow! I get to eat awesome food and, more importantly, I get to see family I haven't seen for a year. So much happens over a years span that catching up is always fun to do. Then the most important part of the day, getting to tell people and blog about what I'm thankful for. So that's what you got to look forward to tomorrow! Reading what I'm thankful for!

Counting all things loss,
