I went to the July Fourth fireworks tonight only to discover it was so cloudy & foggy that you couldn’t see anything – you could see the spark go up from the ground, hear the explosion, and see absolutely nothing. It was an interesting choice.
To make up for the disappointment, my goal is to double the amount of candy I grab at tomorrow’s parade. It’s an ambitious goal considering the economic times. There may be less candy thrown from firetrucks compared to last year, but I think with enough focus, willpower, and sheer tenacity I can make it happen. You need to have clear goals to strive for in order to succeed, and I’m staking mine here tonight.
Parents – be sure to keep your kids out of my way. I’m a candy-stealing machine!
