4th Celebrations
Tuesday 7/5, Woke up at 8:30 and left by 9:15 but Day wanted to feed me breakfast even though I was still full from the night before, Jess got me my movie covers, and then I took off, made it home kind of quickly and got ready for work and headed out. Got to the post office by 10:30 and worked for the rest of the day. Went shopping after work and talked to Kristel on the phone for a while, and then just laid around and started watching the last 6 episodes of Sex and the City. Made dinner, though B said he would come over, he didn’t and I watched all episodes before going to bed.
Monday 7/4, I got up kind of early on Monday even though I stayed up kind of late and got ready and headed out the door to Jessica’s Mom’s house. I was early so I thought I would stop at Mom’s on the way and say hi. So I went there and hung out for an hour or so and we talked about B and the garbage man that’s a jerk then I left. I flew up to Lake Goodwin in about an hour…I was shocked, I didn’t even get through my whole Bravery cd…crazy, I’ve never made it up there that quickly…due to no traffic and high rates of travel. I met Jess and Bora at the convenience store for them to get gas and some idiot was taking up two pumps just to fill up a stupid little plastic container. We went back to Day’s house and just hung out, said hi to Jack who Day is dating again, unloaded Jess’ car and started eating almost immediately. Then Day sent us to Boom City for fireworks and gave us $300 plus her credit card, so we took some back way that her Dad had suggested but ended up taking a long time, but we finally got there and hit our first stand, blew through $100, then headed back to the car and Bora was like “Good, let’s get out of here, this is depressing” but we were like, oh no we don’t, we still have $200 left. So we hit another one, got some good deals, then the third one where this lady was practically giving us all of this stuff, 2 for 1 deals, free stuff, it was great, so we loaded the car and went back via a faster way. More people had showed up by the time we got back and we all got changed into our suits and went and laid out in the sun. Bora totally oiled himself up for some serious tanning, while all of us munched on food and helped set things out. This parade of boats came by the front of Day’s dock and Jess was like “Let’s go get that flag on my Mom’s porch and get on the jet ski and join in!” At some point Jess and I got on the jet ski and cruised around, but not in the parade, and that was really fun and we totally got drenched at one point and just laughed and laughed, then we went and laid out some more and Billy came over and Jess and I were joking that Billy was going to challenge Bora to a “jet-ski-off” but Bora wouldn’t care cause he has a better tan. Billy came over and was like “Who is this dark, tan, oiled up European?” which made us laugh for the rest of the night, and eventually he left to go do his tricks. Finally we ate dinner but we were all so full from before that no one really ate that much and Day got mad no one was eating her ribs or chicken so I went and had a piece. I got burned on my right thigh and ass, but not too bad and then we went to go get Bora some more film cause Jess used like 3 pictures on the boat parade. We had to go to a place closer to the freeway and then I got service so I called B and we both said I love you at the same time even though we never say it on the phone, it was so cute. Then I called Peggy and she said that I could come in late the next day so that I wouldn’t have to drive back, yay! Got back had some dessert, sat inside with Jed for a while and read my magazine, then it was getting dark enough for fireworks. The neighbors on either side had really good ones and must have spent thousands on them cause they were so good, and the ones across the lake were really good too. We were joking that Billy was trying to hit our dock with his fireworks, some of his were really tiny and we were like “Sorry Billy, that one sucked” and then we laughed about Billy getting on his jet ski and putting fireworks on the back and doing tricks that way to show off for Jessica and make Bora look bad. Finally they were done and everyone left and we went to bed, I crashed right away.
