So there are still quite a few fireworks going kablooey out there at the moment. Today was fairly overcast, and a storm even came through, but the night ended quite nice and certainly clear enough for some fireworks awesomeness. There’s nothing better than celebrating the independence of your nation by blowing up a small part of it 😉

I went to the beach with Ruthie and a couple of other people. It was a really nice time, although I did get a little burned–nothing major, though. I caught up on War of the Worlds, which I am still trying to finish–I’ve been reading snippets here and there, and the most I read consecutively was on the beach.

I saw 3 or 4 sharks while I was there, or at least I think they were sharks. I know that on one of them I saw vertical tail and dorsal fins, so I know for certain that I saw at least one. Needless to say that I didn’t venture any further out than up to my shins.. Even that was probably too close for comfort.

Grr. Back to work tomorrow. It won’t be so bad; good project going on, and the week is only going to be four days. w00t! 🙂

I am most definitely going to have to see War of the Worlds again this week.
