Oh yeah, very close to Thanksgiving! I like this time of year. I have to work so I can’t make it back to see my family but there are things about staying here I like. On the edge of Hoboken there is a huge warehouse. All they do there, 365 days a year, is build parade floats. The day before Thanksgiving, tonight actually, they block off the streets and bring the floats into the city. I’ve seen that happen for the past 5 years. It’s become my own little tradition. After that, I have a beer and cry myself to sleep. I also like seeing where I’ll end up after work on Thanksgiving. Last year, I went to the movies with friends. This year, my friend Tiffany asked me to join her and her brother and his wife. So I’m going to do that and get drunk. I also like holidays in the city because I can drive my car to work and the city is empty. However, Thanksgiving is different because of the parade. Last night, I was waiting for the bus for over 20 minutes. I finally said F this and walked through the bus station. You’re not allowed to walk up there because there’s a chance you could get hit by a bus but it’s too exciting to pass up. Plus, I don’t want to spend anymore time in the bus station than I have to. I didn’t get home till 9:00 because of that. OK, don’t forget to check in tomorrow for a special Thanksgiving edition of Bob’s Diary. And don’t forget to tell your family and friends about this site. Be safe traveling today, later. Oh, I almost forgot, this election crap sucks. I’m getting ready to riot in the streets. Have a great day!
