    Isn't every day America day? I thought this was just the one where we're allowed to blow shit up.

    Oh and the day we did all that Declaration of Independence stuff a bajillion years ago.

    i took the kids to see some serious fireworks tonight it was awesome. it felt like they were exploding 5 inches from your face. that, along with some horseradish hummous dip, made the night amazing. patriotic, and amazing. :-)

    Today only really felt like the fourth at the very end, when I took a group out to go see the big local fireworks show - which was actually pretty neat to watch. All the flashing and booming made me think of cannons and explosives and battle, which made me think of other things, like history and people and ideals... But I didn't think too hard on it all because I was too busy just enjoying the colors and sparkles and movement and music that the girls had blasting from my speakers.

    The rest of the day felt weird in a usual sort of way. Out of normal, and slightly out of balance, but not too unlike what it was supposed to be. Not like a holiday, anyway.

    I did read poetry today, though.
    Oh, to find you in dreams - mixing prior, analog, and never-beens... facts slip and turn and change with little lucidity. except the strong, permeating reality of emotion.

    About time: there are finally some halfway decent fireworks videos of Nashville's show coming up on Youtube. These are designed to be seen with music (the Saturns, for instance, appeared during the ET theme song, one of the less patriotic musical selections), but it's still fairly cool even without that here. Of course, I'm biased with hometown pride.

    And the best part of the finale (the least epileptic friendly, as someone from the crowd points out ):

    Some of those in the crowd are pretty drunk, heh.

    A longer take of the finale, and you can just barely hear the music that's supposed to go with it:
