- Our families (immediate and extended)
- Our friends — who we may as well call family
- Our readers — you! — for keeping us interesting and interested, and for proving to us that there *are* others out there happy to be single! 🙂
- Our cats and dog (Hi Kitty!)
- Our homes, which we come back to after long days and extended trips, empty to our relief.
- Pumpkin pies. All to ourselves. Good any time of the year!
- All the friends who offer their families as substitutes for our own when we’re far away, working through the holiday to get a Ph.D. (OK, that’s Lisa’s special one)
- Nut-sucking!!!! hahahahahahaha (that’s Christina’s special one, and Lisa wrote it)
Readers — what else are you thankful for?

OK I’m commenting on my own post. But another thing I’m thankful for: Friends who feel really sorry for me being all alone on Turkey Day offer to bring me back leftovers from their families’ thanksgivings. Which means… I get to do my work, don’t have to make nice with other people’s families, and I still get the food!!!! Oh and my pumpkin pie, which I’m going to make in a couple of hours. I get that all to myself. 🙂

PS the above doesn’t really have to do with being Onely. It has a lot more to do with being in graduate school with multiple end-of-the-semester projects due in only two weeks! (ie, Christina is with her fam in Michigan right now!)
