I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
And so the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're goin' through

Happy 4th

And if you're reading this on the 4th, you're doing it wrong. Just saying. Or the weather is horrible where you are at, or you're not in the States, I mean, there could be dozens of reasons why you'd be on the internet today. So I guess I shouldn't judge, should I?

Heat advisory for the umpteenth day in a row.

I love air conditioning.

Here too, but I still grilled steaks, hamburgers, and hot dogs.

Now watching a Capital 4th on tv and relaxing.

Um, I worked today because most of the people I email are overseas (and also to enjoy the air-conditioned office). Also, because my dad is British and there's nothing to celebrate today?

Sheila, well the air-conditioning is certainly a plus, but if IIRC, you have dual citizenship, so you could also celebrate the 4th. I mean, we took out all those nasty words about Parliament and the British people form the Declaration of Independence.

But does that also mean you get presents on Christmas and Boxing Day?
