Last night was the Fourth of July. Most of my friends are in Corvallis for Summer School so I didn't do anything fun this year. My parents and I went out to dinner then a movie (Ocean's 13) at Bridgeport Village. It was fun and I didn't miss the fireworks at all. I'm pretty sure I've ranted about fireworks before, but I will save it. The big ones are cool, but the Oregon "bring home" versions are loud, annoying, and lame. Wow! Sparks five feet off the ground! Super!

Wednesday thru Saturday I'm dog/house sitting for my roommate while their family goes to the Snake River to fish. I'm glad the cat finally came in after disappearing for the first 36 hours (and being out in the fireworks). So phew. The dog is cute... kinda smelly, but cute.
