happy fourth

i still don't really know what i'm going to do to celebrate. our building is opening up the roof so that we can drink and watch the fireworks and whatnot, which sounds nice, but i don't want to be forced to chit-chat with the neighbors, who tend to be very park slope-y and generation x-ish and generally not very cool. it feels really weird to be in new york for the fourth of july. last year i was in humboldt county and all the years before that i've either been in virginia or new mexico. i like new york okay, but i admit that it would be nice to be someplace else right now.
