Alright then

Been awhile, much craziness has been keeping me from doing…much of anything lately.  So….

Car is finally fixed, after 35 days of sitting at a garage in New York.  The joy of getting into my car was somewhat overshadowed by the realization that after driving a new car for a month, my 7 year old Saturn does indeed suck.

Em and I are moving into our apartment in four days.  The degree to which I am not yet ready to move is a bit staggering.  I never realized I had so many books, but the really amazing thing is the sheer volume of random crap I’ve managed to accumulate over the years.

Speaking of books, I have seven of them sitting on my nightstand, in my car and on my bookshelf that I have started recently but not finished.  I haven’t had the attention span to read anything require thought lately.  Its probably a combination of the usual summer brain rebellion, a lack of time, and the seductive calling of my super nintendo.

Tomorrow is the 4th of July, which means lots of fireworks.  I appreciate the well-done show, but not so much when the pryotechnicians attempt to stretch it out beyond the limits of their fireworks.  A well orchestrated combination of colors is enjoyable.  40 minutes of individual fireworks being lobbed up repeatedly, less so.
