7/27/14
Wow it's been a while. Sorry guys. Well today was pretty good. I went to the movies with my grandpa and we went to see Dawn of the Planet of the Apes. It was pretty good, up until the power went out. Oh well. After that I went to my grandparents house, cleaned their hamster's cage, and fixed my grandpa's TV. Today was my good friend mskate's 21st birthday. I would have taken her out somewhere, but she was busy with her family. We're going out next Saturday. Now I'm catching up on my toonami backlog. Finished black lagoon, watched some blue exorcist, and now I'm catching up on Space Dandy. Later.

7/4/14, Happy 4th of July
Happy 4th of July everyone. In 1776, the founding fathers signed the declaration of independence. A day of remembering freedom and what makes America great; like fireworks a Chinese invention, and hotdogs an American variation on the European sausage, and hamburgers, a dish taken from Hamburg Germany but made awesome by Americans. Yeah, we didn't invent them, but we made them awesome, except for the fireworks. I give China credit for that.
Anyways, today was fun. I went to see my grandparents and aunt and uncle on my dad's side. My parents had to roll me out of bed and into the car because I work such late shifts and sleep through the day. I then slept in the car on the way there and some time after. I visited with everyone and it was lots of fun. My grandparent's community was having a craft show so we all went there as something to do. There wasn't much, the only noteworthy thing was the presumably closed down video store that was trying to sell off it's inventory and the petting zoo. They had little baby ducks and rabbits along with the usual goats and llamas and chickens. If you went into the duck or rabbit pen, you could pick up a duck or rabbit. I didn't because I was eating nachos at the time, but that would have been cool. I jokingly asked my mom "so does that mean I can pick up a goat so long as I'm in the pen?" Yeah I'm a jokester.
After a nice time with my relatives, I went to the fireworks display with mbinski. The place was packed, no parking anywhere. Luckily for me, mskate lives close to where they light them off. I just drove over and asked her dad if I could park in their drive way, no previous plans were made. Since I'm good friends with them, he said sure, go ahead, no problem. Since I was there, I got to meet their new puppy. She's a cute little thing. I asked if their other dog was getting along with the new dog, and they said he was.
After some visiting, I walked over to the display ground and met up with mbinski. I haven't seen him all summer because we've both been super busy. It was great to catch up with him. I told him I still want to try to fix that XBOX360 my other friend gave me with him since he's a bit of a computer guy. We also engaged in our usual nonsensical conversations where we talk nonsense and it somehow makes sense to us. The fireworks were fun. Someone was playing a medley of patriotic songs as the fireworks went off, and that was an experience. Like, IRL background music. Then there were these kids that kept saying "I like that one, I like that one, I like that one..." One point just to be funny I said "I like that one." It got a laugh.
After the show I went back to mskate to get my car and drive home. I originally just intended to thank them for letting me park in their drive way and wish them a happy 4th of July, but it ended up evolving into a 20 minute conversation with her family about life. It was kind of funny, mskate kept saying "bye thanks for stopping by," but then her dad would get me into another topic. What can I say, the man likes to talk to me. Later. And in honor of independence day, I would like to share this little observational comedy joke.
