GrownFolksCity2: are you spending another year alone for the Holidays?
Yes another year alone, this will make 10 years I've been alone for Thanksgiving and Christmas, I could go down and eat with the homeless people, but I prefer to be alone. I only want to be with people that want to be with me, I don't want to intrude on others, just to not be alone... But, yesterday, I did get a trailer hitch installed on my truck... now, I'm looking for a bike rack for the hitch, for my mountain bike and a utility trailer for hauling off branches next year...
... And I won't be eating any turkey or a big meal today... 
... 
All by myself in the mornin'
All by myself in the night
I sit alone with a table and a chair ... (Logged on to CS)
So unhappy there
Playin' solitaire.
All by myself I get lonely
Watchin' the clock on the shelf
I'd love to rest my weary head
On somebody's shoulder
I hate to grow older
All by myself...

I absolutely LOVE that scene with Anthony Quinn dancing and laughing on the beach— also, you may remember this Joni Mitchell song:“Met a reader on a Grecian isle, he did the ‘goat-dance’ very well; he cooked good omelets and stews, and I thought I’d stay with him, there, but my heart cried out for you—California-California, will you take me as I am, strung out on another man, oh, California…..”?
Happy Thanksgiving—- Efaristo!

Not familiar with that song but happy thanksgiving to you & all the other malakes in America “Met a reader on a Grecian isle, he did the ‘goat-dance’ very well; he cooked good omelets and stews, and I thought I’d stay with him, there, but my heart cried out for you—California-California, will you take me as I am, strung out on another man, oh, California…..”?

Oh, pshaw! Greeks find time for fun…lotsa lotsa. Portland has one of THEE coolest Greek festivals this side of Africa…dolmothes, mousakka, avolemono..they play a little game with stones or dice, a sort of “what’s your fate”, I forget what it is, exactly. The Irish have similar, Runes, I think.------ This thread is Archived ------

We are well known for our hospitality. If you have a Greek friend , it’s a friend for life.
No ones leaves my house hungry, or sober in fact

Youcannow: Hi malaka
Gaia sou file(My Gaelic is much better, but I did hang with Greeks for YEARS…I always told my ‘Papa’ Demetri,
“I love Greek men. Crusty on the outside, soft on the inside”. He would laugh, give me a hug (which he did NOT do for hardly anyone) has a heart of pure gold…

I was going to say “Scouse” but wasn’t quite sure of the connotation, and I want to keep this Greek Londoner for a friend…You mean a Scouser!

That icon only ticks me off if someone is using it to be sarcastic and mean, and I know that’s not how you roll, so it didn’t bug me. I respect your style here— btw …

It's not a derogatory term in any way, unless it has expletives after it of course...

GrownFolksCity2: are you spending another year alone for the Holidays?
I don't think i've ever spent any holiday home alone unless i wanted to.most of the time there is family to visit. or they come to visit. there are always public places( all-be-it, generally bars and pubs), with people as well. I don't have a place where every body knows my name, but there is always a place.
this year, i'm not single and still not alone.
i know certain atmospheres and events can suck the life out of good things and make them feel not so good.
i hope every one that celebrates Thanksgiving, has had a good one.
