Thanksgiving/Black Friday plans?

What are all of you doing for real Thanksgiving this week, and black friday?

I'm going to head to Lowes or Home Depot to get two ceiling fans for my apartment.

I'm in a massive quandary this year. My parents, at the house they're staying in, are hosting thanksgiving this year. After everything that's happened to them, I sort of have to be there. I WANT to be there.
The trouble is, that the rotation states that we're with the in-laws this year, so I need to find a way to wrangle both somehow.

Right now, my plan is to leave for the in laws wednesday night, and leave there thursday after dinner and make dessert with my family, which gives me the weekend free to hunt, relax, or whatever. I'm POSITIVE that's not going to fly with the Mrs. though. She wants to spend thursday morning here, and leave for her parents sometime PRIOR to dinner....which I don't want to do because we wrap up thanksgiving festivities down there meaning we can't get out of there until sometime friday at the earliest, and I don't want to travel on black friday, especially since they live near a massive shopping center which means we'll be stuck in traffic downstate for at least an hour trying to get out of there...probably meaning that we won't leave until SAT....which I'm not thrilled with that idea.

I may just shoot myself instead.

I am going tire shopping. I heard some good deals on tires at walmart will be going on. If I can find a set that fit my car, I'm probably going to bite. I don't think I want to go in any stores beyond that though.

I was thinking about shooting some natives in the back and stealing their land

Real Thanksgiving was a month ago bro.

I wont be shopping on black friday, hopefully, ever. For thanksgiving, I'll be meet both my parents places for their respective meals, bring my grandmother to my aunt's house, play hide and go drink (and watch football) to avoid drama, and let someone else bring grandma back to the home. I will then try to avoid everybody I'm related to until Christmas when I will repeat the process.

Edit:  Dick's has horrible ammo prices.  Their sale prices are still higher than a lot of other places normal prices.   Without driving to Pennsylvania, its all I have. I have one legitimate gunstore by me which is run by a d-bag. I went in there awhile back to buy some 30 Carbine, and the conversation went like this: Me (deaf from radio blasting): Hi, do you have any 30 Carbine? Guy: Yeah, got FID?  Me: Yes Guy: (holding what looks like a 20rd box upside down about 7 feet behind a counter in a dark gunstore) Me: How much/what brand? Guy: its this brand (shakes box) Me: How much? Guy: (random absurdly expensive price). Other than that, I have a local sporting goods store that has nice people, but still way more expensive. Last time I was at Dick's, the prices weren't too bad. Not walmart, but reasonable. FID?

Thought we were going to my wifes families for TGD, but apparently they committed too late and most of the other members of the family made plans, so they cancelled. We usually make our own turkey on Friday, but this is now falling on us. Also the first year that I have used the Turkey Fryer that I got last year, so that may be interesting. Would have liked to have tried it out on my immediate family instead of subjecting my extended family to potential turkey failure.... Already figured out one problem... I bought too big of a bird and am not going to have to go back out and get a smaller one. Fryer only handles up to a 15 pound bird and I already bought a 25lb monster like I normally do.
