black friday is not as black metal as one would hope

today is friday, november 27.
happy belated thanksgiving everyone. yesterday totally wasnt thanksgiving here, it sucked! yeah they dont even know what thanksgiving means, or that its a holiday in the US. like whaaa? you dont have all of americas holidays memorized? well fricken get with, we're like the most important country in the universe, arent we? some people have heard of it, if i tell them what it is in spanish: el día de la acción de gracias. the direct translation for that from spanish to english is 'the day of the action of giving thanks'. which sounds pretty lame, so i pretty much just say thanksgiving but with a spanish accent, which probably sounds even lamer. so yesterday was pretty sucky, cause i knew everyone was hanging out in america eating american food, and having THE MOST AWESOME DAY OF THEIR LIVES, and i was here, in spain, where they dont even sell pumpkin cheesecake. how, you may ask, can someone survive in a land that doesnt even sell novelty flavored cheesecakes (my favorite is bubblegum)???? well all i can do it try to live my life as normally as possible, and each day it gets a little easier. so as a special thanksgiving treat, i decided to order my first pizza! ooo i was super nervous because it sucks speaking spanish over the phone and i didnt want the anonymous pizza worker to think i was an idiot. and i know its silly, but i felt like a total fat ass ordering a whole pizza just for me. and for some reason i always think they know! like when i call in they can totally hear my alone and fatassedness in my voice! im paranoid! i know! so anyways, the ordering went really well, i think the anonymous pizza guy was kinda flirting with me, which was weird, cause couldnt he tell i was foreign (and thus occupying the status level of a fricken LEPER in this country)?? so my pizza came, it was good, i got corn, pineapple, and mushrooms. and i had a very pleasant thanksgiving, with or without a pumpkin double chocolate swill with carmel chips and fudge lining cheesecake! (oh man but that would have been rad...)
