Mine basically consisted of fireworks too close to the boats and blowing shit up at ungodly hours of the night.

I played with the Austin Symphony for the annal FoJ concert, and my wife ran over and killed a dog. So, sort of up and down.

We had a barbecue, watched fireworks by a scenic lake in East Boca, and ate some amazing apple pie.

I also wore an American flag themed Vineyard Vines shirt with these very patriotic Retro Jordans.

All in all, a good day.

How was the Bud Light and Natty Light by the way? Mediocre as usual?

I hope you had a great Fourth.

I made a eight layer dip. It was delicious.

Cooked burgers and dogs for 40 people.

Set this shit on fire.

I feel absolutely nothing but boredom looking at fireworks now and don’t drink so I was bored and getting chewed up by mosquitos but I went to hang out with my friends and brother. Then they left me to walk home alone because we all walked there together and then they tried to fit 8 people in a regular 2005 Wrangler that a friend showed up late in. I refused to ride home by hanging on to the outside and so they left me. So overall that made me pretty depressed because I would have walked home with any of them if they were in my position so that they wouldn’t be alone. It also doesn’t help with my suspicion that no one wants me around unless I’m being a designated driver. But without them I would have no friends and just be depressed and alone. My family is probably right and no one would want to talk to or be around me because I’m not positive enough (I have clinical depression but they seem to hold that against me). So pretty shitty sorry that I’m a literal downer.

I worked. The extra pay will be nice when it hits in a couple weeks.

That sounds amazing. I like that eight layer dip, you should make a recipe book some day.

Ouch, sorry to hear that man.

I’ve had to ride on the running board of a Mercury Mountaneer while holding the roof rail once. Fun times until I fell off.

Loud explosions, scared cat, uncomfortable dad with PTSD.

It was awesome.

Nice! Looks fun. Beautiful sunset.

Speaking of American themed Vineyard Vines shirts, I used to have one. Until it disappeared and then reappeared a few months later on my friend’s back.

But Light and Natty Light were just as average as they always are, haha. Shenanigans ensued and I don’t remember half of the night.

The person in the boat next to us had a terrified three year old when the fireworks started going off. Oops. PTSD in the making.

Calm, I avoid hoomans and noise as rule.

No double time... But I do have the 7 consecutive days after the 4th off. With no vacation days used. Can’t complain.

Slept until 11, did nothing all day, ate some BBQ for dinner, set off a few Roman Candles and some fire crackers left over from last year, was in bed at 9:30 for work the next morning.

I went on a coffee date that turned into a couple hours wandering the footpaths of a local park before going back to his place, where we grilled veggie burgers and dined outside over a couple glasses of white wine. A hot makeout session followed. We’re making plans to see each other again. I call it a win.

Went down the WA coast.

Ate like a fat kid and watched the bro trucks get stuck in the sand.

BONUS A6 struggling to get off the beach!

Thanks, I didn’t think it was worth the risk and the driver is known for being impulsive and driving really fast so that really made it seem like a terrible idea to me.

1. bike ride with kid, went off some sweet jumps

2. light off a shit ton of fireworks in the driveway

3. potluck at somebody’s house on a private lake with 3 SUP’s and kayaks, general mayhem with the 11-13 YO kids trying to drown each other.

4. Fireworks show at Whitefish lake, amazing as usual.

No idea. I was about to go help push it out but then Quattro kicked in and he found some hard pack to cruise out.
