I managed to catch some fireworks last night. I walked into the kitchen and someone was setting them off out in the field behind the house. They weren't that great or anything, but it was better than nothing. I sat in the dark with the cats on my lap for a few hours just watching. It made me a little homesick though. The last time I watched fireworks was about 3 years ago. I sat out in the empty lot in front of mom and dad's house with Chris and James.
It's just another holiday that I have to spend by myself. I wanted to go out to Mt. Rushmore and hang around there but I waited too long and the traffic was awful. I ended up turning around.
My birthday is in 11 days. I wanted to have a nice party, but all of my friends left with J so I'm stuck alone. I'm pretty sure I'll have to work at 4am anyway. It would be nice to have some fun though. I might go down to the Legion and drink with some old vetrans. That's always a good time.
