Next question: go home for Thanksgiving?

The plane tickets are rather high and it has never been a big tradition in my family to celebrate Thanksgiving. On that Thursday, every year what happens is that my mom makes turkey. Turkey in soup. Turkey something. The majority of my Thanksgivings if I can recall were my sister, my dad and me at home. My mom at work (overtime pay on Thanksgiving!) As a result, I have been somewhat envious when I hear of families that have traditional dinners. They often say how much they hate it and how much they don\’t want to see their relatives. Yet, I would like some of that.

So I am trying to decide whether I should stay in Pittsburgh, go somewhere else (invitations, anybody?) or go back to California (I would get a chance to see family, but then I\’ll see them again in December).
