For me, the past few years the month of November has been a fascinating time to be on Facebook.
My newsfeed is filled with "day __: today I'm thankful for", and I always find the responses intriguing.
I do not personally participate in this ritual because let's face it
(1) I've never been good at keeping a diary. Heck, lately I've been having trouble keeping up with my daily to do list (speaking of, I hope I fed the dogs this morning...)
(2) My posts would probably need more information than is acceptable for unofficial FB etiquette...
For example, if I were to write one today it would have been "today I'm thankful for muscle relaxers and pain killers." - an obvious opportunity to cause a momentary family scandal for all to ask my parents when their youngest became a drug addict...
I'm going to leave that unanswered too because the sheer fun of it compels me to do so...

So while you won't receive any "I'm thankful fors" from me, save for maybe an unintentional timing of an ode to my DVR or my crockpot, bring on the November status updates people. I'll be reading.
