Nickolas and I are heading to my younger sister-in-law's for a bbq and fireworks. My m-i-l called us Sunday to invite us over. :evil:

I took a massive nap and now I'm going to watch movies. I couldn't have dreamed of it being any better. My energy is sapped!

Thank got for Netflix. I'm sitting here downing a bowl of chocolate chip and watching movies.

Nope. Not a problem at all. We waited until after the rain passed through (about 6:30pm) to head down and then went right in. We were actually not on the mall proper. We went to a location by the Iwo Jima memorial. Nice view and a bit less crowded.

Thanks for thinking about me!





Goodnight and happy 4th everyone!

I got double pay for today, AND I won a portable DVD player :)

I also got to spend the whole day in a nice air conditioned room, and most of the people I dealt with were surprisingly pleasant.

Note to self: When applying sunscreen before sitting in direct sunlight for three hours during a baseball game, do not somehow completely forget to do your arms.

Spent most of today in luge-mode, then got busy this evening and did laundry, cleaned cat litterboxes, made bbq ribs and stuff for dinner (not necessarily in that order) and am now sorting through stuff in the Girl's second bedroom, trying to make a path to the closet.

Earlier tonight, Trudy asked Tori if she knew why we were celebrating today, and I burst out laughing. At the time she asked, we were all sprawled over the furniture watching 'Matilda' and hardly exhibiting signs of life. (Tori answered correctly, btw). I couldn't help but laugh, because if this is what celebrating is passing for nowadays, God help me. We can't even light fireworks anymore- this has become just another boring holiday.:rolleyes:

Luge mode?

We had a great time with the in-laws. It was wonderful and Nickolas had a blast with the waterguns.

Basically laying about in a totally prone state of being.




It's when you are determined to be too lazy to move a figging muscle. Actually, probably as unlike a real luger as could be, but there you have it.
