A Non-holiday Holiday

It is Thanksgiving Day, but it's not a celebration. It's a placeholder, merely a spot in time, where we all wait and hope and pray that the tide of the Pandemic will be turned. It seems callous to proclaim thanks in the face of so much suffering. Tempting the Fates, almost. 

We'll go about our business as usual, trying not to think about what we are missing, whom we are missing. And we'll have pie, because Pie. It's the best we can do.
