At least we got a hat

So July 4th wasn’t everything it should have been … not bad, but not what I was hoping for on my wife’s birthday.

Here’s the short, short version (grammar & commas be damned) …

Morning: Loganville’s first annual July 4th parade. Lots of fun, lots of photos (Suzan’s still editing her set, they should be up today), and more people than I was expecting. I put the photos on our business site’s photo gallery, since it’s related to the community & Suzan’s wish to be paid for her shutterbug

Afternoon: hide from the sun, edit parade photos, contemplate buying Suzan a new camera so I can use hers instead of the old Kodak (yes, I am starting to like photography again). Eat lunch, go to Fry’s, return yet another wireless keyboard, sigh, spend more money on a name-brand keyboard, find an office chair Suzan likes, discover said chair is not in stock.

Evening: go to Braves game (last minute decision, considered a good way to see fireworks), watch Braves give up 6 runs in 6 innings, get rained out, leave early, listen to Braves resume play at 11:30am on car radio, drive home damp & without fireworks, Braves loose sometime after midnight.

So, not exactly a stellar celebration of my wife’s 35th birthday & the independence of our great nation … but it was free hat night at the stadium, so now we have two hats for our trouble. I still got to spend a mostly-fun day with my spouse, and that’s always a good thing.

Now I need to spend July 5th trying to wake up & get some work done … yawn …
