   Happy Turkey Day!




Happy Thanksgiving everybody! I hope everyone is enjoying their holiday. I'm taking it really easy today 'cause tomorrow is Black Friday. What? You don't know what Black Friday is? Here:
"Noooo! I want my X-Booooox!"

No, I'm only kidding about this... But "Black Friday" (there are other ones too) is basically the day after Thanksgiving. You know the BUSIEST shopping day of the year?? Sometimes a riot will break out. Though I don't think that it's QUITE that bad. It can be though. If someone was giving $50 million away to the first 20 people, yeah: RIOT. So I need to spare the energy to shop ‘til I drop!


Oh, I found out an interesting fact today. Ever wonder why you feel sleepy after you eat your weight in turkey? I ask my mom about this and she said to look it up on the net, so I did:
"L-tryptophan is an amino acid that occurs naturally in foods. It occurs in turkey meat, and thus one feels sleepy after having a big turkey dinner. L-tryptophan can also be used to treat sleep disorders. It can cause some stomach upset and should be taken with a carbohydrate rich snack at bedtime. The downside of L-tryptophan is it is quite expensive, and not covered by pharmacare."
So, this is what you look like when you have too much turkey:
“Aww, ain’t they cuuute?”

But isn’t that weird? ONE little molecule in excess can may you sleepy! I guess it’s kinda the same thing when sugar makes you overly hyper… ::shrugs::


Well, I hope everyone enjoys their holiday! I guess eating (turkey) until you drop (sleep) has a whole different meaning, huh?

Oh, how does the site look now? Good bad? Comments…
