Fourth of July

****UPDATE****
We might not go after all. I still don't have a ticket and it's been reported there are going to be 150,000 people showing up for this event. Unfortunately, I'd be the only one going with Carli and I freak out every time I take her somewhere by myself and end up not having any fun at all, so...Dad is trying to come up with some way we can all go see the fireworks without having to pay to get inside and still be able to have some fun. We'll see. However, rain is in the forecast for tomorrow and its already raining here a tad bit tonight and I really don't want to have the event rained out. I'll let you know the outcome tomorrow. And just as an OBTW - we'll be having brats, pork spare ribs, potato salad (homemade, of course) and corn on the cob for our 4th of July celebration dinner.



So, the plan is to go to Tempe Town Lake tomorrow afternoon and walk around the park, eat the highly fatty foods that are for sale and generally have a nice time hanging around waiting for it to get dark and watch the fireworks. That's the plan. Only one thing is preventing this from happening - James not getting me a ticket in time to attend. I've reminded him, more than once, that I need a ticket in order to even get into the park, but alas, he has yet to purchase said ticket. I'd go myself, but don't have the $ or anyway to get there. So, I sit and wait, trying not to be pissed off that he's done nothing in the way of getting this ticket for me.
