What The... Is it July 4th Already??
Although it completely disgusts me, last night was a night filled with fireworks all around our home... up on that hill... then over the other direction... fireworks all around me made for an absolutely terrible night's sleep. My visions and 'dreams' placed me in other places I preferred not to be... the sounds put me there and kept me there all night. I couldn't relax... I couldn't sleep... I felt I shouldn't be in bed under these circumstances. I know my internal clock is all screwed up anyway after having a nonexistent winter but is it already July 4th??? Since when are fireworks a weekend-before-Memorial Day-weekend event? Even if it were Memorial Day weekend, I'm still thinking fireworks are not appropriate. Personally, I despise fireworks... my heart is pounding now just thinking of hearing them... and, if I smell them too, I get lost in a far away place in a far away time... in these times, I am not in the present with the people around
