Giving thanks, and other things

As a rule, I don't give a crap about holiday posts. I don't give a crap about the holidays, either, for that matter.  Having a grab-bag nuclear family of agnostics, atheists, amateur historians and military veterans, and no interest in dealing with my vaguely bipolar extended family tree, all of my holidays tended to be very pragmatic and low-key. But somehow I came out of this year alive, which is a mystery even to me, so I am thankful even if I don't observe with the usual bells and whistles.

Today I'm thankful for:

My wits that keep me afloat.

My girlfriend that keeps me sane.

My taste for the weird that keeps me writing.

Those who keep me going, even when I'm kicking and screaming.

What are you thankful for?
