You died of turkey overdose, didn't you? Your entire family is laying out on the floor at your mother's house RIGHT NOW, waiting for a neighbor or the coroner to show up and pronounce the cause of death: the turkey was just too damned good, and you all ate 'til you exploded.

Actually, by the time dinner hit the table, I was too tired to be hungry. I struggled through one plate of food. I'm probably the only American citizen to have lost weight over two consecutive thanksgivings.

Well, I guess it's a better outcome. But you've got to admit, it just doesn't quite have that dramatic flair.

I hope you at least got a decent nap out of it.
