Summer

Such a long time since I posted anything... I'm almost as busy as I was during the semester, but now I'm spending all my time as a grocery store clerk. Yeah, totally where I was expecting to be at 26 & with two Bachelor degrees under my belt (thanks for the recession, rich old white dudes!). But at least it's an upscale grocery store and close to where I live. I wish U of M hadn't totally screwed us all over by canceling second semester summer nursing classes :/ But I keep reminding myself that rushing to be done with school never got me anywhere, and at least I'm not in Murfreesboro. I've just always wanted so much to not be in Tennessee &/or the South.

Anyway, here are some photos of the fireworks display in downtown Memphis on the 4th of July. Not very good quality pics, but they're from my cell phone, so what do you expect?

It was pretty cool because I watched them from the top of a (four story?) building. It reminded me of when I flew to San Francisco on the 4th a few years ago and had an aerial view of fireworks all over L.A. I was a still little sad, though, that I wasn't able to spend the 4th in Smithville like I usually do :/ I should be grateful though because if I did have summer classes like I expected, I wouldn't have been able to go to Smithville at all this summer to do some of this:
