This year, I'm thankful for:
-Fantastic trading partners like the mother-daughter team that sent me the nifty autographed card featured here
-A rejuvenated Orioles farm system that is full of top-level talent far superior to Keith Reed (Sorry, Keith)
-A small but appreciative (and responsive) readership that motivates me to keep blogging on those lazy days
-A supportive, close-knit family that includes a great new brother-in-law
-A stable new job with a much shorter commute
-Friends, including the new ones I've made and the old ones I've reconnected with
-Good health for me and my loved ones. Don't ever want to take that for granted
-My first two trips to the West Coast. San Diego is raipdly becoming one of my favorite places. By the by, the O's visit the Padres next June...
-Buying my first home - I'm in a holding pattern right now, but it should be a reality later this winter if all goes well
That's what comes to mind at present, though I could probably think of other things if I sat here long enough. If you have anything of your own to add, leave a comment. Happy Thanksgiving...even if you're Canadian.
