darkemeraldsIt rains here, famously, until the 5th of July, but this year it stopped a couple of days early, and the Glorious Fourth really is glorious for a change. Also, there's been a crackdown on illegal fireworks, so my street is peaceful.
Sunshine and no fuckin' firecrackers. It's awesome.
It's bizarre to have a Wednesday holiday, but I'm making the most of it. I got a couple of extra hours of sleep-, then deleted spam, fixed some DW settings that will hopefully end it, and turned a pair of boot-cut jeans into a pair of straight-leg jeans.
Now I'm decked out in red sandals, white chinos, and a true-blue shirt (three colors I never owned before Dressing Your Truth), because, what the hell. I also drank lemonade. Now I just need to bake a cherry pie (which isn't gonna happen) or make ice cream (which...might, actually), and I think my passport is secure for another year.
Is anyone else finding The Newsroom incredibly dull? I made it through 1.3 episodes and quit out of annoyed boredom. I was hoping for the kind of thrilling engagement I remember from the first couple seasons of The West Wing, and boy am I disappointed. How does such a great writer become so tedious?
Ah well. Happy Independence Day to my American friends.
