Because I work retail stupid hours to cater to the losers, excuse me customers that are there at 5 am, I usually am only awake for 7 or 8 hours, so it's usually something I can bang out in twenty minutes such as fried shrimp, oysters, or speckled trout. This year, our store is opening at midnight to cash in on the greed, but lo and behold, I have drawn the cush mid shift 7 am to 4 pm Friday. It will be turkey breast and wings on the grill, Happy Thanksgiving for my lovely wife and myself, for once.

Not abnormal at all. I think you should eat foods that evoke a genuine sense of gratitude, one of which is never, ever going to be turkey IYM. I don't hate turkey. It's just boring.
This year I am going to eat alone on Thanksgiving, and I will have stuffing, mashed potatoes, cranberries, and something for dessert that is not pumpkin pie, which I truly do loathe. Either creme caramel or a cranberry tart.

Not a single one of my vegetarian freinds eat turkey on Thanksgiving. Not abnormal at all.

It's only "abnormal" in the sense that most people do eat turkey, but if you and your family would rather have something else, by all means, do it! I myself am not into turkey, so when our little family goes out, hubby and kid do the turkey thing and I have beef or seafood, which I like SO much better than the bird (and its carcass in my fridge for the whole week afterward).
Do what feels right for you...diversity is what this country is about.
So you do an oyster bake? Can I come to your house for Tday? :)
