The Thing That Annoys Me About July 4th

Fireworks are fun and pretty to look at, but they really get annoying from the last week of June through the 7th of July.

It is bad enough that the small towns in our area have their 4th of July celebrations on ...erm MY BIRTHDAY! but do the individuals also have to shoot off fireworks for two freaking weeks!

It gets old.

And it scares my damn pets...dogs and cats alike.

And it is a given that some idjit will blow off a body part because they don't know how to set off the fireworks properly.

That's always a favorite news headline during the Indepence Day holiday.

Personally I think the headlines should read "Stupid person taken out of the gene pool by bottle rocket"

Film at 11!

There is one thing that I really adore about this time of year!

Sweet corn!!!

I'll take corn on the cob over fireworks any day!
