Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Am awake. 4th is my favorite holiday. Like the forever teenager in me shedding the shackles of the overlord or something. Mostly it's the pretty fireworks. Love them! This is my first here in TX. Two folks have said "we'll call you when we learn details of what's going on." No phone calls yet.

...Which took place at a Buffista F2F. Which for some reason was steampunk themed and on a train...
That is an awesome dream! Well, except for the Vortex part. Gives a new meaning for "unleash the boobs of war".

dude! I didn't know, I think I'm human!
Ya ya ya. That's what all the Final Five say.

It tends to lead to much StuntHusbandfragging in subsequent Halo deathmatches.
Ya, he does that to everyone. At least you get to hear his lovely squeal of laughter in person, not thru the headset hundreds of miles away.

Happy "The Queen's not on our money" Day!!!
Ha! That's funny. Hmmm, I wonder when the Canadians and Aussies and Kiwis will get the clue?

Happy Fourth! I'm going to the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach
Oooo! Long Beach! Say hi to my old home. The fireworks over the Queen Mary seems really fitting, somehow.

ND, I hope ya make it home soon. Hopefully, it being the actual holiday, that means there are less people actually traveling, so you don't have to body check the asshat tourists.

Job~ma to Barb's DH!! Speaking of job~ma, Laga, aside from the test, how did last Monday go? Constant job~ma going your way.

OK, I should get off the intertubes, and get dressed and eat.

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

The weather could not be more perfect. I am a happy happy Jess today.

ND, I hope your travel is hassle free.

Happy Independence Day!

TCG is at a gig, and I'm out shopping with Mom.

Alas, I think I'd miss it by the time I got there.

I am going here today, though, so yay fishies, fireworks, and food!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I may be able to watch fireworks from my patio tonight! I hope so. When UVA has a fireworks display, I can see it over the trees. That would be cool.
