Even though Matt just got back from Vegas he's wants to go back again later this month. He asked me if I would mind going during Thanksgiving. I said I did mind and he wanted to know why. "Because family is more important than gambling."

We're going to my parent's house for dinner this evening. I'm not exactly sure why. I was just there last weekend and there isn't any special occasion that I can think of going on. But my brother insisted that we visit this weekend and was willing to move it to whichever day or time that we could both be there.

Matt and I have entertained some guesses. He thinks that I've forgotten something important. My guesses range from the paranoid (maybe something terrible happened that they want to tell us in person) to wishful (maybe my niece, who refuses to speak on the phone, finally learned how to say "Aunty Jenny" and they want me to hear her say it).

Whatever the reason, I'll find out tonight.
