So, I was planning on going home (Melbourne) one day this week to pick up my dive gear, so my mom said to come on the Fourth for dinner and cause my sister and Drew would be over too. My dad, upon hearing that I was going to start diving again, decides that he wants to get me a tank. And then my dad, mother, and sister decide that it will be a surprise, and it would be funny to put it in my room and see how long it takes me to notice, because I'm really bad at shit like that.
It took 30 minutes.
So my 4th was spent swimming around the bottom of the pool making sure all my gear still worked. I even got my sister to try it, and then my mom with the terrific line "You always told me to try everything once" to which my mom replied smiling "You little shit, turning that back on me" which was the funniest thing ever. Then she gave me a kiss and tried it.
And so my holiday was good.
P.S. I hate fireworks.
family,
