The Julyth of Four
Jul. 4th, 2007 11:59 pmAs I'm now in America I think I should culturally-insensitively wish you all a happy 4th of July, but I'll split it into a happy Independence Day for Americans and a happy otherwise meaningless date for everyone else. Anyway, we get a day off work today. Every Wednesday should be a day off, it's been fantastic.
We got up in the afternoon and Whitney made some ridiculously patriotic waffles using the iron toaster thing that we got at Bed Bath and Beyond the other day purely so that we could use our "$25 off a total purchase of $125" voucher. Apparently you're meant to wear red, white and blue on this day, but the only clothing of that description that I own has some obvious problems.
And about five hours after we got up it was the evening, and we went around to one of Whitney's friends' flat to watch some large fireworks and people being rained on. I really thought I'd use the day off more productively, but sometimes you just need to waste a day...
