burn away my pride

A good way to start the morning......

So this week was thanksgiving and my family was out of town, it was a very interesting experience being here alone on this week that is usually supposed to be immersed in family tradition. I was taken in by my best friends family and we spent the day in Tampa with them. It was a gourmet thanksgiving if i had ever seen one, with dishes i had never even heard of. After we ate we all fell asleep on the floor for a few hours.

As fun as it was it was still hard to be away from the ones I love most. I guess it all goes back to growing up and sticking with a work commitment. And with that I did have an excellent week at work and met alot of cool people.

I got lost a few days ago in the backlost of universal. As i strolled through the tv production center, which i was sure i did not belong, I eventually ended up by dueling dragons. I figured "why not?". as i boarded the ride i sat next to a dad and his two daughters, he stroke up the conversation with me and asked the normal small talk questions. As we started up the lift hill I heard him talking to his two daughters and getting them excited for the ride. After we started down the hill he yelled "It Is on!!! WWOOOOOO" And as i was listening to his corny remarks it made me miss my dad. It also got me excited to be in his position one day.

I love the dynamic of family, i think it is one of the most powerful experiences for a person. weather it be good or bad so much lies on the influence of our families. And as i come out of this thanksgiving weekend i can say that i am immensely thankful for my family and all that they do for me.
