Fourth of July was "Sousa till your lips fall off" as expected.
Slept till well after noon today, and then took a nap after lunch.
More details later.

4th of july update

First, if you are a band musician, hop on over to here: http://www.livejournal.com/community/community_band/ and take the poll, please.

So here's what our day was like: leave apt. at 8:00 to make sure we got to Montgomery Village by 9:00, before the streets were closed off. ( a long bunch o' detail about parades and concerts )

This does not include the time S spent walking all the way back to the car to attempt to move it to closer to our finishing point, finding out he couldn't, and walking all the way back. ( and on with the story )

That included a sprint I really wasn't up to, to get to a fellow band member's car 2.5 blocks away so he could drive us back to our car, since S did not want to walk the entire mile back there AGAIN. That 2.5 blocks of very brisk walking left me very exhausted, not able to breath or talk clearly for a good half hour afterward.

That's what 4th of July was like.

After that, it was about 11 PM. On the way back to Elkridge - about a 30 mile trip - we stopped in Baltimore City for supper - a diner called The Broadway, which advertised easyon/off the highway, and 24-hour service. Turned out to be good diner food, and an excellent dessert case, even by diner standards - so we wound up getting 4 desserts. I think we deserved them, after all that work. And 2 of them were only cookies, after all.

Tuesday was less exciting - slept till 1 PM, went and opened local bank accounts, ate late lunch, took nap, ate late supper.

This evening, I went over to the Sit & Knit hour at All About Yarn, the LYS in Columbia. Nice bunch o' people. I can't seem to convince very many other people to love working with cotton the way I do - I have stylizedboredom doing it 'cause she's allergic to wool, and fadethecat liked cotton the minute I gave her some, but otherwise my plot to convert the world to knitting and crocheting more with cotton than with wool has been less than a success. I signed up for "knitting camp" next week - 7:00 every evening, classes including materials, to get started on 4 different projects for the holiday season. That's 4 presents that will pretty much be finished!!
