on the other hand, (almost) everything is closed on thanksgiving and christmas.
so, it might be necessary or justified, for some precious lil "people", such as tattletale tom and lazy boy steve, to "do" something for thanksgiving.
besides, tattletale tom works on thursday, he has a car and plenty of cronies. (different situation).
while i am exhausted all the time, no car, zero "friends". (limiting reagent).
one time, someone asked me, @ 9pm, what i was doing that night. "sleeping".
my former wrestling coach went out to dinner after wrestling practice, with some wrestlers, @ 9pm and he said he had to wake up 5am for work.
i need way too much sleep, and even if/when i get enough sleep, i'm exhausted all the time.
it's like a battery that never fully recharges.
