in which i spend a 4th without fireworks
The good news: they're finally teaching those dang fires a lesson.
The bad news: there shall be no fireworks tonight.
Fireworks. The glittering bursts of flame that celebrated the freedom we'd so ardently fought for.
Fireworks. The show of wonder that children love/hate as the sonic booms resonate within their tiny lung cavities.
Fireworks. The mandatory display of patriotic affection without which Independence Day cannot be called such.
You shall be dearly missed, my firey friends. At least I have you on my $4 T-shirt to help ease the pain of loss.
Until next year, I bid thee...farewell.
