Were you an American, Megan, you wouldn't have to be.
This is a time of celebration, so sit still and be quiet.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Kat! I love sleeping. But decided I should get up this morning, so as to be somewhat able to get up tomorrow for work. Stupid work.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Jesse is being all chipper. Does that seem right to you?
Maybe I need to go back to sleep too.

Happy Independence Day, USians!
It took me this post, a quick adding up that yesterday was the 3rd (I know the date because I scheduled a rehearsal lesson for my students on it, also known as the-seven-hours-straight lesson), tomorrow is the 5th (I know the date because it's the date of the students' exam, which is the reason for the-seven-hours-straight lesson), so today is the 4th, to realize that it's the Fourth of July. Silly brain.
Happy Independence Day, UnUnAmericans!
[Edit: 3*2=6 and 2³=8. I would like to dedicate this slumbernut to fireworks.]

Last night was really nice - I tried a new type of sushi that was tres tasty (the local baseball-inspired Redbird roll: avocado, crunchy crawfish, and sweet & sour sauce with shrimp on top) and then out to Collierville for a few hours to watch fireworks with best friend and his kids.

Work is totally overrated. Not in a fun way either.
I bought some stuff at the store yesterday, but I fear I left a bag at the store. I wonder if they will be open today?

I'm always chipper! At least on the screen, I am. I'm actually reclined with my eyes half open. It is also much later here, of course.
I also did have some donettes, so the sugar rush may be contributing.
Heya, Nilly! Are you all better yet?

Kat, is there a phone number for them? If nobody answers the phone there, then they're probably closed?
Jesse! My sister in fireworks-love! Yup, I'm all better, thanks.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Ooh, yum.
Why am I awake? (Answer: Because at 9 am, I had a headache and needed coffee!)
Happy 4th, fellow countrypeople. Way to still be independent!
