I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving, and by the reduced number of submissions this week, I'd imagine everyone kept busy! I had a nice long weekend, but as for Thanksgiving... I was laying on the couch feeling like like death for most of it! Pounding headache, fever... just bad overall, but I felt much better by Friday, so that's good!
