a traditional fourth of July sentiment

I gotta hurry and get this posted before midnight so I can officially say "Happy fourth of July" and it'll actually show up as that. Also, I am eating Snickers ice cream at the same time- hard to type and scoop simultaneously. No big plans tonight, my cousin came over and we set off a hell load of fireworks at my brother's friend's house (I call that kid, "the screamy one" because he doesn't know how to stfu or what "inside voice" means, argh. I think the only reason I was actually invited to the screamy one's house is because me and my boyfriend put in on the fireworks, plus I got family coming in to fuck with explosives. We had a great time. This other kid had some regular firecrackers and he held on to them too long so they exploded in this hand and that was funny. Then Lucas threw firecrackers straight up in the air way too SOON, and they came straight down before going off. Me and Greg were sitting inside the screen 'cause I was getting attacked by mosquitos, but it was Lucas, my cousin, and this other kid Dan that were standing there when the firecrackers came back down. They all ran in different directions and at least 2 of 'em were yelling "oh shit oh shit" which we decided was a traditional fourth of July sentiment, especially when fucking with fireworks or sparklers right near a screen door, or lighting a cigarette off a sparkler that's shooting flames, or firing roman candles over one another's heads and at a tall tree- don't try this at home, kids. Those tall trees are fuckin' toast the minute another hurricane comes this way. And where do they fall? On people's roofs of course! Fuck those tall skinny weak-ass trees! Another funny thing- my brother stopped on the way to the screamy one's house to buy lighters. I had bought a 5-pack of Bics and have a couple more besides that (I lose a lot of lighters so I stock up, but when I just bought a lot of 'em, then I find the ones I lost before but if I don't buy more then I'm stuck with fuckin' matches) but he didn't want Bics, he wanted "the good lighters that don't burn your fingers." Shit, I been using Bics for a long, long time- and I wasn't only lighting cigarettes either. I done all sorts of interesting shit with lighters, and I always buy Bic- the only lighters for real crackheads/ junkies/ potheads/ speed freaks. My brother can't operate one of those, so he bought them long-ass lighters, I call 'em bong lighters but I think they are called BBQ lighters to earth folk... not sure. Doesn't really matter, actually LESS chance of losing a lighter if they aren't going around. But I did get to make fun of my brother's "sensitive little thumbs" all night, and that was all right. Plus, after lighting a couple fireworks off, everyone was asking me for "one of the regular lighters" anyway! Hah, Bic lighters rule!

I got an ipod for my birthday from my parents! Hooray! It is black and holds 80GB of memory. I already have over 70 songs on it and I got it on the 2nd after we ate dinner at Great American Steakhouse, which is my favorite local place to eat, if I'm not footing the bill. Very expensive, but fuckin' awesome.

Oh to the person who leaves long diatribes of shit that I've already heard before (just read the OLD comments, you'll see!) and then repeats it in the next post- I hope this isn't gonna become a pattern. I'm having a drink and all the MADD mamas and anyone else who thinks they are better than me for it can kiss the fattest, whitest part of my fat, white ass. Kay? Kay! But I do notice that you are the only hater, and someone did ask why I only responded to negative posts- and that was a very good point. So I send hugs and kisses out to my loyal fans: Melody, Jamie, Libby, Cocaine Princess, Victoria, K1tten, Greggie (do you still read this? answer me on here if you do), anyone I forgot I apologize but I got plenty of love to spread around. Just ask anyone with a hundred bucks, they'll tell ya! Hah! Happy fourth, y'all!
