...Found out that an event of some type is occuring next Saturday, which (if I end up working) will be the 5th consecutive Fourth of July weekend I worked in a row.. It's my favorite holiday, too.. oddly enough, and I get confused faces when I tell people, it is really my favorite holiday, followed by Thanksgiving, Halloween, and Christmas.. There is something magical about the celebration of our country.. seeing fireworks bursting in the air over a nation of peace (....well... I guess, but that's a whole other blog posting..).. However this year, again if I don't call in sick, I'll be working. Inside. No fresh air.. no sunlight. No fireworks and adult beverages..
I always wondered why people would choose the inside of a restaurant for a family reunion on a major holiday in which most people cook out. Why would people opt for stuffed chicken breast and heavy mashed potatoes and gravy as opposed to hot dogs, hamburgers, and watermelon..? Why would someone pick cake over ice cream..? Or soup over salad..? On the hottest holiday of the year with fireworks over skies at night. . .
...I think I've decided: I'll be watching fireworks this year.
