Today I helped my parents deliver thanksgiving plates to people around town who either didn't wanna cook or had nowhere to go. This plan came about 3 years ago by Debbie Cox (totally awesome woman!) and her husband Ricky Cox (totally awesome man!) I do enjoy volunteering and helping people out regardless of if they need it or if they just want it. Most of the time I really don't like people. I got really annoyed this morning at McDonald's. They had the Macy's Thanksgiving stuff on TV and there was an awesome performance by who I think was the Broadway cast of Billy Elliott. Anywho, there's a part in the dace where Billy's friend hands him a tutu and he starts dancing with the fluffy pink skirt on. At which point this group of men sitting next to the TV started making fun of this little "gay" boy as they called him. I wanted to stab my own eyeballs out with my straw. I can see where that misconception would come in, dude in a skirt=gay dude. What annoyed me was that these kids were putting on an AMAZING performance and here are these old farts making fun of the "gay kid". Not saying damn those kids sure can dance or Gee whiz! what a fun show! Just got on my nerves a bit.
Anyway, I documented delivering the T-Day dinners in the form of status updates on my facebook. You can read the story below:
