Sweatpants are the least judgmental type of pants.

Thanksgiving Afterthoughts

Everyone loves Thanksgiving. And what's not to love? There's always some family drama, that one uncle always drinks too much and you feed the dog under the table so your mom won't see. In all that excitement the day slips by so quickly and you wake up the next morning with a hunger for leftovers, the post-thanksgiving blues and a thousand turkey thoughts. Here's a list of the things you might be thinking after Thanksgiving:


1. I wish I had taken some leftovers on the plane.

Because everyone knows you can never have too many leftovers and thanksgiving food never expires so yes, it is definitely still edible a week after thanksgiving.

2. Stuffing should be on every menu.

Don't we know it! That stuff(ing) is amazing and wouldn't you order it as your side item for your In N Out burger if you could?

3. I need to buy more sweatpants.

Because they're the most accommodating and least judgmental type of pants. Let that drawstring hang out!

4. I think I gained 20 pounds.

Okay, maybe not 20...but probably 5. You're not doing Thanksgiving right if you go home without a mashed potatoes top (that's a muffin top Thanksgiving style)

5. Maybe I should go to the gym?

Hahaha yeah right! Pass the pumpkin pie please!

6. I need a daily nap for the next month to recover from that meal.

Or maybe two naps a day? Whatever the doctor calls for, my friend.

7. Is it appropriate to eat a 20 pound turkey every day?

That big bird would be easy to conquer every 24 hours.

8. Dang we drank a lot.

Bag up all those bottles and cans; you could probably make a few dollars at the recycling plant.

9. Ugh, I can't wait for thanksgiving next year.

Just 364 more days! 363...362...361...

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
