Que Sera...

Well, everything's been going well here. I will use this opportunity to let the people that are checking this that I will be out of town for two weeks starting this upcoming Tuesday (July 12). I am going to main land Mexico to see a friend graduate from college as well as get some R&R. I will be back on the 26th with hopefully some good stories to tell from the trip. I will still be checking e-mail while I'm there, but it will probably be infrequent. However, if anyone does need to get in touch e-mail will probably be the easiest way.

Other than that, the 4th of July was good. I ended up going to see fireworks with my roommate and some other friends. The only hitch came as the fireworks started to go off. We stood around for a while waiting for the fireworks at around 9:00. There was a large group of people where we were watching them from. Finally the fireworks started and we all turned around to watch in amazement. Everything was almost dead quiet in the crowd for about a minute as everyone watched. Suddenly a loud whistle and someone screaming from behind us "What is this a f$%%in library?" broke the silence. Everyone turned around as the whistles continued, and the voice eventually announced that his name was John. He continued to try to get everyone to hug each other and gave a passionate speach about the meaning of the holiday through most of the fireworks show, which ended up annoying a lot of the people in the crowd. It was the loud ringing in my ears from his whistling that ended up annoying me the most, but it was a good fireworks display. Well, that's about all the news here. More when I get back...
