独立記念日

Friday was the 232nd anniversary of flipping England the bird. whee.

Work called me and told me to come in an hour later than scheduled, so I went for a stroll with Ty and Dave and did some shopping. Turns out I WILL get paid time and a half for working all day then, which is very nice. I need to be making that much regularly. XD Business was pretty slow the whole day. People were generally in a good mood at work, which was nice, and I got the manager to pay for my lunch. XD We ended up closing two hours early too, but I was there for one of those hours cleaning the place up. I got some leftover bread and yogurt parfaits and brought them over to Kevin's cookout. One of his roommates bought a bunch of meat from the Internet and we cooked that, along with beer brats and veggie burgers and even marshmallows. It was the first time I ever roasted a marshmallow over a gas grill, and it took a lot of time. XD After a while there, we walked to the lakeshore and were able to see three fireworks shows from the small towns around Madison. Sure, they were far away, but it was really pretty, and all that reflected in the lake along with the Capitol building was awesome looking. It looked something like this photoshopping that I did. XD

Today I finally have a day off and I'm going to clean the house up a bit and do some fun things. Yay for Dig & Save XD
