HAPPY THANKSGIVING DAY 2009

I've received this as an e-mail from a couple girlfriends---changed it a bit to fit me....hope it makes you giggle also....

TWAS THE NIGHT OF THANKSGIVING,
BUT I JUST COULDN'T SLEEP.

I TRIED COUNTING BACKWARDS, I TRIED COUNTING SHEEP.

THE LEFTOVERS BECKONED -THE STUFFING AND MEAT -ONLY THE WHITE,

BUT I FOUGHT THE TEMPTATION WITH ALL OF MY MIGHT.

TOSSING AND TURNING WITH ANTICIPATION,

THE THOUGHT OF A SNACK BECAME INFATUATION.

SO, I RACED TO THE KITCHEN, FLUNG OPEN THE DOOR,

AND GAZED AT THE FRIDGE, FULL OF GOODIES GALORE.

I GOBBLED UP TURKEY AND GRAVY AND MASHED POTATOES BY THE POUND,
I FELT MYSELF SWELLING SO PLUMP AND SO ROUND,

'TIL ALL OF A SUDDEN,

I ROSE OFF THE GROUND.

I CRASHED THROUGH THE CEILING, FLOATING INTO THE SKY,

WITH A MOUTHFUL OF FROG EYE SALAD AND A HANDFUL OF PECAN PIE.

BUT, I MANAGED TO YELL AS I SOARED PAST THE TREES...

HAPPY EATING TO ALL - PASS THE CRANBERRY SAUCE, PLEASE.

MAY YOUR STUFFING BE TASTY, MAY YOUR TURKEY BE PLUMP.

MAY YOUR POTATOES 'N GRAVY HAVE NARY A LUMP.

MAY YOUR YAMS BE DELICIOUS. MAY YOUR PIES TAKE THE PRIZE,

MAY YOUR THANKSGIVING DINNER STAY OFF OF YOUR THIGHS!!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO EACH AND EVERYONE
