I know I said that I would only blog every other week, but this week is exceptional because I don’t want to break the tradition I started back when I was blogging for USC.

This year I had an awesome year. Here are a few things that I am thankful for, in no particular order:

• Leslie coming all the way from the Philippines.
• Traveling – I have spent around fifty nights in hotels.
• My best friend Patrick, who has been my partner in crime for twenty-eight years.
• My friend Jay Lavender who flew all the way from the East Coast just to help me speak at USC then flew out here again for my wedding.
• My parents. Enough said.
• Time Warner Cable for making a deal with DirecTV.
• DirecTV for making a deal with Time Warner Cable.
• Netflix.
• All my friends.

These are just a few things I’m thankful for this year.

Happy Thanksgiving!
