Hmm. It occurs to me this morning that I wanted to share some of the oddities of yesterday.

Firstoff, I have discovered eating raw macaroni (uncooked noodles) is a bad idea. Fragments of noodles can very easily cut into gums (and they do). Secondly, people of Seattle are weird. The faces of everyone coming out of portapoties is priceless... I'm going to make a point never to have to use one of the public ones on days such as the 4th of July. Thirdly, when you're in a crowd of people, be wary of rocks. Yesterday my friend Adam took a huge hit to the ankle... he couldn't figure out who threw the rock at him, but the rock was probably bigger than my fist. Ouch. Fourthly, big fires are fun. There was one that got lit yesterday on one of the blocks near where there were fireworks. Firetrucks and ambulances were everywhere, and they looked like they were having a bit of trouble trying to put it out... but it looked like fun. I like flame.

Anyway, I hope everyone else had an exciting 4th.
