Well, it wasn't a pool party, but we tried.
A few weeks back Mariel and I got a kiddie pool on sale at work. It's not a huge pool, but not a dinky one either. Anyway, it's finally getting warm enough to use. We have to fill it with hose water from the house, which is pretty cold, so it has to be about 90 out for it to be comfy.
That's me in the pool the other day, wearing one of my dad's old Taco Maker shirts. Makes me look like a fat cow.
Anyhoodles....
We were hoping to be able to set up the pool for July 4th, but alas, we had some Thunderstorms role through Friday night and cooled things off a little too much. So we had to go to plan B.
We decided to go out to Iggy's, a local Sports Bar type place where I had a huge beer. Unfortunately, I wasn't carded for said beer, which made me feel real damn old. *fumes* Also, we had to sit and watch the coverage of Steve McNair's death, which was a bit of a bummer for a holiday. Whatever though, the food was good and the beer was even better. It had been awhile since I had a beer.
We also stopped by work. We had some polo shirts on sale for ten bucks and I wanted to pick up another one. While we were there, we also picked up some fireworks.
After coming home and taking a nap, oh and playing a little Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, We lit the fireworks. It was pretty fun, we didn't buy a ton, but we got our ten bucks worth of Sparklers and fountains. Good times. You can see some pictures either on my facebook or on our photobucket.
After we blew crap up, we came in and some chocolate cake to finish the day.
In other news, yes, I decided to do the facebook thing, we'll see how it goes. If you want to find me, search by my email brandonlbc@gmail.com.
So that's about it. Mariel and I both have a couple of days off and we're looking forward to sleeping in a bit.
Some of our fireworks..
