well, it's the 4th of july and everybody here's wearing shirts that have some sort of patriotic/flag pattern on them. my dog is afraid of all the fireworks, and i'm tired. not the greatest holiday this year.
here's the thing: i'm anti-bush, not anti-patriotic. my mom has been giving me grief all day cuz i said "i'm sick of all these cheesy shirts." i think our independence is a great thing to celebrate, i'm just sick of the cheese factor it now has and how the 4th of july is now an entirely commercial holiday, so i don't like to celebrate it the way most people do.
my grandpa got mad at me, too, because i said bush pisses me off. he was all like, "you shouldn't insult our president on the 4th of july. you need to show respect for the troops fighting for us." and then this big argument ensued between me and my mom and grandparents. i kept telling them i support the troops, but i don't support WHY they're fighting. they're not fighting for us, they're fighting for bush.
i'm also not a big fan of the 4th because it's all fireworks. i love fireworks, but i'm not allowed to light any of 'em. i even have to stay inside for most of the time while my family's doing 'em. i'm a bit of a pyro, so i just wanna play with the fireworks and matches and lighters. i guess that kinda scares my family.
