Thanksgiving

Since Thanksgiving has always been a vegetarian’s hell for me, a crushingly boring and repetitive memory of biscuits and corn while surrounded by turkey eaters, I have no sentimentality about this holiday at all. Thus, I am pleased to avoid it by being on airplanes all day. (Although to be fair, I am missing a very nice vegetarian Thanksgiving dinner to which I was invited in Cairo.)

I’m facing a weird itinerary, however, involving not one but two European stopovers (7 hours and overnight, respectively) and it’s going to take a very long time to get to L.A.
