The stars will no longer fall

I can tell it's still the Fourth of July because the end of our street is emitting small ordnance booms. After a slow start due to construction we did not expect due to the holiday, rushthatspeaks and spatch and I spent the afternoon and evening with my parents where we ate all the summer foods and toasted marshmallows over the fire pit and lit sparklers, of which Rob got some photographic evidence. We did not see any fireworks, but passed a small carnival while on a post-prandial grocery run. I hadn't had corn on the cob in so many years, I forgot to make typewriter noises while eating it.

It has been nonstop fireworks for hours now in my part of town. I can't believe they haven't run out yet!

Fireworks + gunsmoke + neighbours blaring amazingly misogynist rap 50 feet below the bedroom window = migraine. If we ever had the $$ we'd check into a motel somewhere every year.

The amazingly misogynist rap sounds like insult to all the rest of the injuries.

YES, AND THEN it was followed up by the entire first Guns n Roses album

Whyyy.

Aw, glad you managed to do some nice things! (We inadvertently all celebrated along with you by exercising democracy over the past 24 hours and change. XD)

And completely unrelated (happily), but I thought you'd like it and I don't want to forget to link it sometime: https://www.tumblr.com/oldshrewsburyian/755038374443810816?source=share

Congratulations! That's important. That's really important.

I'm afraid I can't follow that link because it's a locked Tumblr, but if it's this post, spatch showed me the photo earlier this evening! (Which is how I found out that Lord Buckethead has been superseded by Count Binface.)

I hadn't seen that, and I do appreciate it, and thank you!
