Happy Independence Day!
Yes, yes
I remember back in the day when July 4th was a really big deal. My mom had made me a colonial costume and would have me dress up for the day. I particularly remember this little circle hat thing that she would pin onto my head.....and I would be sooooo afraid of losing it.
I remember parades more than I remember fireworks. Fireworks were a realllllly big deal. I remember my dad....who was the Navy Band....and now and again we would get to go to the twilight concerts and fall asleep on the ground where we stood.
I remember pledging the alligence at school. I remember dreams in which I feared that I had forgotten it. In real life....I never did.
I remember barbeques....which I miss.
I remember so many things....

yash inspires me.
I haven't been here as promised....but as stated previously.....Yash inspires me despite her complete confusion regarding the flavor blue and its relationship to the universe. Poor, poor Canadian lady.
Interesting things of note:
I did not know that the Icee is a cousin of the Slurpee.
Apparently Icee came before the Slurpee and Slurpee is a 7 Eleven Icee. That said....why do I feel that I desire the slurpee more? Well....first of all....in Texas, the only flavors one may aquire are blue, coke, Dr. Pepper, and usually the invisible empty icee container that is present at every icee vendor I have ever visited.
While I commend Icee on the introduction of the Dr. Pepper flavor. I understand that Slurpee, being the icy beverage innovators that they are......have TWIZZLER flavor. Being highly sensitive (read hyper) to all things Red Dye 40......the thought that I can have my candiferous crack in a frosty beverage.....well.....it turns me on. I am considering a vacation to another state that has Slurpees.....just so I may taste. I may have to rub it on the nips I am so excited.
