Happy 4th of July!

I hope you and yours have a fun day ahead. There’s a heat wave in the city and temperature outside is a scorching 75 degrees. Perfect for watching fireworks tonight from an apartment rooftop in Russian Hill.

Me? I’m at work, having already used my holiday last weekend. That’s okay. I’m wearing white jeans and flip flops and plan to take it a little easier than usual.

Is anyone else at work today?

I’m at work! we ended up going for lunch at an American style sandwich place, with another American guy from Colorado who lives in Sweden, plus a French guy. I told them how Sweden makes me think of America because they serve lots and lots of ice in drinks. A friend of mine in Switzerland actually had to get ice from Germany for her party, people just don’t see what it is good for!
So enjoy a nice ice cold glass of something today to counter the heat wave 🙂

i’m working, too. but i’m at home (all the libraries are closed), so it doesn’t really count. everyone is gone this year, so it’s just me, a salad, corn, and beer!

hello to my fellow sagehen (’02, too)! i’m sorry about the lack of ice. when i was in vietnam, there were plenty of iced drinks, but everyone warned me to avoid them because the ice cubes were ‘homemade’. that was pure agony in 90 degree heat!

I’m craving a big, ice-filled, iced tea now 🙂
