I went to yoga this morning (yay) and ended up with a wicked headache (boo), and the friend I was supposed to hang out with cancelled on me (boo) so I took a long nap.
Now I"m thinking of making chocolate-covered strawberries for the thing I'm going to this evening...a friend who is going invited me (though I do know the host), so I'm not sure what the setup is, but I assume if she's having people over at 6pm there will be food, and thereforeI should bring some.
I am very distracted by the billows of smoke I can see out my window--the next door neighbor has apparently set up a bbq on the balcony/terrace (which is lower than my window so all I see is smoke!). Now I want a hot dog.
Just reach out your window with a long fork and grab yourself one, meara!
We decided not to go down to the Mall for fireworks on account of rain, and now it's not raining. I'm still pretty sure a couch and AC beats wet grass and mosquitos, though.
omg, only 10 listings up thus far. this is taking way long. (I did take a food break and a break to introduce mac to fragglerock)
Oy. On A Capitol Fourth, Josh Groban just butchered Simon and Garfunkle's "America."
Stinks of sulfur out there and it isn't even dark yet.
Shoulder is better tonight. Will see if a full weekday swim aggravates it tomorrow.I was telling my pregnant swimbuddy about it, and how I in-advisedly google diagnosed. Turns out she's a med student. She started laughing and said usually people tell her about their maladies AFTER finding out she's in med school. Hah. But the google and fledgling med student recommendations are the same. Don't aggravate and regular advil. Turns out she's done it to herself too, moreso as the pregnancy advances. So I won't be the only lapper occasionally grunting when I forget to pay attention to my stroke.

Oy. Downstairs neighbor's neurotic dogs are now freaking out over the sound of fireworks. Oh well, at least for once they're on the receiving end of annoying noise pollution rather than its sole cause.
ETA: It looks like Steve Martin's transformation into Colonel Sanders is almost complete.
Just back from watching the harbor's fireworks (and several other's as well) from the hill in the field with my neighbors. We carried chairs and our drinks. Mister Kitty's biggest fan, G, sat on my lap for most of it. Not bad, not bad at all.
I can hear fireworks everywhere, but I can't see them. I dislke fireworks, because they make me feel lke I am n a war zone. I thnk my cat might be deaf, though, as she seems not to react.
