So Kevin spent his day working on the fence some more, which I had already helped out with a lot, but it was not something I was about to do on the 4th of July, come on now man. So I met my cousin at a lake where she and her friend Anna were meeting some of their friends or her friends or something for a barbeque.
They weren’t my type of people, totally hippies, and one of them was talking about the irony of anarchists celebrating the 4th of July like any other patriotic person. I grew out of thinking that kind of thinking was cool when I was like… 15.
But we did play a very fun game of dodge ball that lasted a long time and then we went swimming and we got free food, so it was fun.
At the end Anna and I were getting along really well and I asked her out. She didn’t seem interested in that but I got a text from her a few days later when she asked me when I wanted to go out. So that worked out.
Anyway, after we left the barbeque, I headed back to my brother’s for the 4th of July stuff they do over here, which apparently included the whole neighborhood getting together and singing songs. Interesting. I wouldn’t sing. Then we had the barbeque over here before having another bonfire and a lot of fireworks. Lots of drinking of course afterwards… it was fun. Best 4th of July ever (though there admittedly haven’t really been any good ones).
