The last band of rain is passing through now. It should be over in an hour or so.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Hey, Sail - it's been quite a while since I posted with you! How are you doing?
Also, we had a horrible weather yesterday - yucky scorcher, lots of dust everywhere, followed by crazy strong winds. Today, however, is much better. So I hope the trend of luck continues for all of you guys, too, weather-wise.
[Edited because "wuite" may be a new form to write "quite a while", but I've never seen it.]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Good news, Tom! I love it when my laziness pays off.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Jesse, I just did something stoopid, with email. Sorry about that.

Heh, no problem.
lots of dust everywhere, followed by crazy strong winds.
Oh yuck. That does sound crapola.

Hi, Nilly! I've been busy as a bee at work, but at home (as I am today) I'm a veritable sloth.
I'm glad you're hoping for a better day, today! Your weather sounds as unpleasant in its own way as ours has been. Are your holidays done now? I'm a complete ignoramous when it comes to the Jewish celebrations.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Whee! 4 more sells on ebay. 15 books gone.
Maybe after I eat and do some knitting, I will list some of the bigger items I have.
OH! also need to relist A/C on craigslist.

How about you?
Other than checking the dictionary for "veritable" (yay, I learned a new word!), I'm still pretty much in the "not Passover anymore! Let's spread crumbs around!" phase of the after-holiday.
[Edit: Hee. I just answered your edited question, unknowingly. The last holiday was Wednesday. Then we had one day of work and then the weekend, and now there's a whole full week of no holiday in between! Then, next week, the day of indenendence, just so we'd remember what it's like to have a day off. This time of year is a bit crazy.]

This is when everyone needs a dog, for crumb disposal. Cats aren't very good at it.

Nope, no good at it at all.

Crazy, but fun! How do you celebrate your independence day? Anything in particular that is done? Or is it just lots of partying, parades and fireworks at the end of the night, like us?
