You know, the Monday after the Thanksgiving holiday weekend,

it always has kind of a drill sergeant feel to it for me.

Because after you get this, you know,

you get this nice holiday, right?

You get, you know, hopefully you get Thursday,

Friday, Saturday, Sunday off.

Like it's really, it's one of our only big long holiday

periods like that.

But then the Monday after Thanksgiving holiday weekend,

back to work on the double, especially because

we just have this short period of time

before people are off again around the Christmas holiday.

So I always feel like this specific day on the calendar,

the Monday after Thanksgiving is always the day when the

to-do list feels about 50 pages long and you feel like

you're sort of late for everything.

And you see that in the news cycle today too.

Although in politics, I feel like right now we're in this

mama where it feels like we are back to work for sure

that post Thanksgiving vibe is here.

But in politics, we're back to work on two very different

but parallel tracks.
