The 4th of July / 07.07.08, 02:00 PM

I get the feeling a lot of MY kids will be talking about our Fourths, so let me beat the crowd:

Three ridiculous things happened on July 4th:

1) We watched Mission Impossible 3 (which I inadvertently called Mission Year 3 at least once) at the men’s center. It was awesome and made me really happy for the rest of the day. I’m not sure why. Towards the beginning of it, I decided that I want to start learning Spanish next year.

2) After work, Lindsey, Rusty (our coworker) and I went out for a bit. When we got back, one of the steps outside of our building was broken. Our steps are made of concrete. I never, ever thought I would see something like this. There’s just a large gaping hole in our steps that you have to climb over to leave or enter the building.

3) There was an insane number of fireworks going off in Chicago. Everywhere you looked on the horizon, you could see them. It was a really peaceful experience to watch them. We’ve been hearing fireworks go off in our neighborhood for a few weeks now, and that has been very annoying. But last night was different. It was so cool to see people enjoying themselves, expressed through fireworks. I don’t think I can explain it fully here, but feel free to ask about it some other time.

Love. Peace. And prayer to E. King’s fam.
