Plastic Cups, Styrofoam Plates, Thunder and Illegal Fireworks

We had a potluck at work today for the 3rd of July. Loads of fun, and way more food than the six of us employees can eat.

Last night I didn't sleep worth a damn. First at midnight, there was some jackass lighting off illegal fireworks... Someone called the cops on them, whoever they are, and thank god for that. OMG it pissed me off so much.

THEN at 2am I woke up suddenly because of the huge ass thunderstorm that passed over. I jerked awake and started looking around, absolutely certain that the cottage had just collapsed, and Collin started rubbing my back and was like, "It's just thunder and lightning, babe. Go back to sleep."

Just as I was on the verge of sleep, listening to the low rumbles of the sky, *SMACK-KABOOM*, another clap of thunder RIGHT OVER MY FUCKING HEAD. At least how it sounded to me, so I jerked my head up again, this would probably be the reason my neck is so stiff.

Oh well, on a brighter and happier note, I am going to the coast this weekend! I am gonna go visit my dad and my sister and nephew. Then I plan to go visit Tiara (my headgear) and her little one, Emma, and then Heather and her little one, Keira, not necessarily in that order. And I will probably go to the beach, and maybe some other places, take some pictures, and just sort of take a break from stuff. Collin will be staying home, and going to see his grandma.

I bought two CDs last night at Best Buy. I bought another Dashboard Confessional - Dusk and Summer CD that I didn't have yet, and, because the one song I heard by her was so freaking catchy, I bought Katy Perry's CD One of the Boys (I think that's the title, the cd is in the car).

Then Collin, my sweet, funny, odd Collin, got a Bass Mechaniks (I could be wrong on the spelling) CD, because he loves his bass, and a Josh Turner CD (Josh Turner is HOT!). What a freakin' combo there, country and techno-electronica-bumpiness. I love that man.

Well I think I have blabbed on enough for now. Only four and a half hours to go, I will almost definitely blog later this evening, and depending on how this afternoon plays out I will either be okay, or EXTREMELY DISGRUNTLED!! (I decided to sound more edjuhkated, rather than use pissed off.)

If I weren't laughing, I'd be crying.
