I SAW FIREWORKS ON SATURDAY NIGHT >:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD Happy happy me. Half the fun was just wandering around (and spending an hour and 15 minutes in the food line behind an idiot). I blew upwards of $25 on the vendors that were there, and NONE of it was for anything good. Junk food and toys. The toys are particularly worth writing about because my choices are amusing.
$8: butterfly balloon. On the one hand, I am horrified by lepidoptera, but on the other hand, this doesn't flutter, it's construction is excellent and its colors are superior. It is a wonderful balloon.
$8: one pink and silver Sailormoon-ish wand, topped with a clear plastic star with spinning LEDs inside. It is blindingly obvious that it is bootleg/cheaply made/ROBIN ARE YOU ACTUALLY 10? (Yes) But it lights up, and when you press the switch in the other direction it plays this 5 second long clip of a catchy but COMPLETELY unintelligible song. On the one hand, I PAID $8 FOR THIS? On the other hand, I PAID $8 FOR THIS!!!!
$8: another pink and silver Sailormoon-ish wand.
...
It's basically the same exact thing with a different clear plastic piece on top. You may call me stupid, but I am now a DOUBLE-BARRELED magical girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I would have bought more light-up toys (need new henshin item and power crystal) but the fireworks were starting and I was spending my family's money. ._. ...but when I brought over the second wand, my parents didn't bat an eyelash. I lit it up for them and they were like, YAY!!!! They are so cool.
OH RIGHT THE FIREWORKS. They were nice, good variety, good color, could have been longer. The real sell was the grand finale, which was an overflow of fireworks for what seemed like the longest time. My father and I started laughing and cheering like lunatics. Seriously, it was like armageddeon. THE SKY WAS FALLING.
I was kind of tired and wimpy today, but I went to a tourist attraction called the bridge of flowers. It's an old trolley bridge that some people bought and planted flowers on. Pretty. Also sunny and hot. :(
EDIT: To people on my flist who were unsure about posting less-than-cheerful things in their journals:
ANYBODY WHO ACTS LIKE YOU SHOULDN'T IS BEING SILLY.
As I understand it, you are NOT the kind of people who are in a position to do something about their horrible lives, but don't. Nobody can help having a few problems they can't solve, everybody has to be sad sometimes, and WHAT THE FUCK IS A JOURNAL FOR? Do it! If you ever catch me complaining you can smack me!
