So do we, but we celebrated Thanksgiving. We've found there are often places that have a Thanksgiving meal overseas, the only challenge is sometimes they are somewhat formal affairs and I've got no coat/tie/slacks. This year a place nearby threw a Thanksgiving meal that was pretty sold, about $20 USD it required reservations but was pretty informal.
Regarding thread question, it was just with my wife. We have some friends here but they are mostly British (well one Eritrean guy) so aren't too interested in celebrating when we tricked the savages into letting us stay for awhile.
It's just me. Not really celebrating though, and I haven't in years. I'll watch the Cowboys game this afternoon and the rest of the day will be like any other.
Alternative question: How many of you WISH you were having Thanksgiving with just yourself or with just your significant other? Families can be stressful sometimes. Life isn't the Hallmark channel.
I'm always one contentious holiday away from opting for the holiday Bahama cruise.
People who know me would never guess I LOVE the Hallmark channel .
Two best months off the year right now for the Hallmark Channel..
It's me and my cat, he is good company. We have been alone for many years but when I do get depressed, I think about previous experiences I've had sharing the holidays with others and I perk right up.
I think that if people were totally honest there would be far more of us loners and fewer Martha Stewart clones hosting extravaganzas.
My favorite Thanksgiving phone call was from a neighbor who called out of the blue to tell me that she would invite me to the Friendsgiving she was attending, but there was only room for 14 people so she would bring me leftovers. I managed to politely refuse her offer. Picked over leftovers...yummy!
This is how much attention I pay to the holidays: I thought next Thursday was Thanksgiving. I didn't find out until a friend texted me this morning to have a Happy Thanksgiving. Oops. There's goes Round Table. Guess I better rustle up my own grub.

Ha, I did that last year.
