Happy Long Weekend!

I am off to do the Fourth of July thing, which will consist of the same stuff we do every year:  watch our tiny town parade, catch a movie, enjoy a burger on the grill, wander up the street and ooh and ahh over our fireworks display, relax with a nice cocktail, and watch (hopefully) cheesy re-enactments of historical events on the History Channel until the wee hours.

It might not seem like much, but I really, REALLY love our July Fourth celebration.

Oh, and might I add that I agree with this guy - can we maybe lay off the relentless END OF DAYS AMERICA IS DOOOOOOOOMMMMMMEEEEDDDD OMGWTFBBQ!!! for a day or two?

Seriously, people.  I only have the best interests of the authors in mind - can you imagine how exhausting it must be to spend all of your time contemplating the end of all your time?  Everyone needs a vacation now and then, even the doomsayers.
