Freedom Day

Happy 4th of July everybody!


I'm hoping everyone else had a very entertaining and very wonderful/food filled 4th of July! Even if it wasn't food filled, I still hope all of you had fun!

I've been really busy working lately and it's been hard to keep in contact with people/do something fun. Sarah messages me every now and then and we go out, but other than that after working all day I just feel drained. It makes me not want to do anything but lie down and sleep/internet. However, usually when people invite me to go places I'll go and have fun because it beats sitting around all day. Even going to the grocery store with my sister, which actually was really entertaining.

Anyway, these past two weeks Richard, Lauren's best friend since like grammar school, came down to visit from England with his boyfriend Ashley. Richard and Ashley were pretty busy visiting a lot of the sites, going to places like DC and New York. They were having a lot of fun and eventually made their way here, staying at Lauren's place for a few days. Although, working 9 to 5 made it hard for me to go over to hang out with everyone.

I did eventually get a call from Lauren asking if I had plans for the 4th. I did not, so she invited me over to hang out and do fireworks later in the day. We were going to hang out during the weekend, but I was busy almost every day, so nothing ended up happening. It sounded like they were having a lot of fun too.

I got to see everyone on the 4th, which was a lot of fun. It consisted of racing Lauren's sister (also named Sarah, but she will be Lauren's Sister so there is no confusion), going to the grocery store, just hanging around, fireworks and the beach; and ending with a nice trip to the diner.

Overall, not a bad 4th of July.

Though I must say that Ashley was incredibly entertaining. He fit right into our group perfectly, especially since he is so witty. It was also really nice to see Richard again, as his crazy antics were missed. Especially when before the fireworks he started singing every national anthem he could think of, including our own, England's, France's and I think two others.

I'm so tired though. I didn't really sleep the night before and I didn't get home till 12:30. Sarah has it worse though, since she had to drive me home and then drive herself back to her house (around 20 minutes from me.

Still, a very awesome 4th of July.
