This throws a huge wrench in my holiday plans, as Thanksgiving officially kicks off the holiday season for me. (Well, that and the fact that my car is in the shop. Again. Second time in three weeks. Can the new year come soon enough so I can go ahead and get this?)
As I have already said, the Christmas shopping is done. I have made my housecleaning schedule. I have tentatively scheduled a party for Thanksgiving night, as I did last year.
Now, if the rumor proves to be true that my family will be celebrating Thanksgiving at my uncle's house, it would be convenient for me to leave from his house on Thanksgiving day to go to Auburn to get ready for THE game the next day.
But you know what would be more convenient? To move Thanksgiving to Wednesday.
To think I want to move a holiday to make it convenient for my football schedule. Apparently, I have more Southern in me than I was beginning to think.
From now on, if the Auburn/Alabama game MUST be played after Thanksgiving, I propose it be played in Tuscaloos
