To all of you from post-1776 America, happy Fourth of July. [Thoughtful pause.] Well, I suppose it's the fourth of July for everyone else too... I hope you're all having a nice day ( Read more... )

Happy fourth.

And yeah, I'm seeing things on and off.

...What does it say?

i_speak_softly July 4 2010, 16:37:53 UTC

Hi, Derek. What kinds of things have you been seeing?

Hm... Google bought YouTube, the United Nations is getting a new Secretary-General, and North Korea tested a nuclear weapon.

derek_bliss July 4 2010, 16:43:37 UTC

...Sounds about right.

Mostly stuff from my job. Sometimes the last team I had before I got here. So far, not both at the same time. [Which is a relief.]

i_speak_softly July 4 2010, 16:46:50 UTC

Oh - I'm sorry. Mine aren't like that. [Thank goodness.]

Yeah, Don? [Oh god is he back to normal? Please say he is.]

Winry... [Aw geez, now he has to actually talk to you.] I haven't seen you since, um... [Okay just get it over with.] What did I say to you, when I came back?

Filtered crytearsofjoy July 4 2010, 18:38:19 UTC

You don't remember?

Filtered i_speak_softly July 4 2010, 19:36:19 UTC

It's - a little fuzzy. [He sort of remembers but HE HOPES HE'S WRONG.]

If I may ask, what's so special about the fourth of July? It's some sort of holiday for a few people, isn't it?

[She knows she read something about it, but it was a long time ago and there's just so many holidays out there...]

[Voice] i_speak_softly July 4 2010, 17:54:59 UTC

Yes - the Fourth of July is when Americans celebrate gaining their independence from Britain. Even though, historically speaking, it isn't a very significant date.

[Voice] fonon_professor July 4 2010, 21:13:04 UTC

Then, America and Britain were once under the same rule?

[Voice] i_speak_softly July 4 2010, 22:19:40 UTC

Yes, America was once a colony of Britain. [Feels totally awkward about explaining things to a teacher, btw.]

Happy 4th to you too!
Is there gonna be anything going on?

i_speak_softly July 4 2010, 17:55:53 UTC

There were some fireworks last week... but I don't know if anything is happening today.

sofar_sogr8 July 4 2010, 18:00:03 UTC

Last week? A little early, huh?

i_speak_softly July 4 2010, 18:09:04 UTC

It depends on your perspective. If you were from Mexico, they'd be late.

[ Pfffff, he totally forgot the date. ]

Happy Fourth, Don! Now if the place just had a few fireworks for it.

i_speak_softly July 4 2010, 19:36:56 UTC

Hey, Casey. Did you miss the fireworks last week?

ny_vigilante July 4 2010, 19:39:54 UTC

Huh. Guess so. [ So put out. ]

Gonna have to keep an eye out for the next time, huh?

i_speak_softly July 4 2010, 19:45:53 UTC

Oh.

We should do something celebratory this afternoon. Got anything in mind?
