13 Reasons I Left the 4
th of July Festivities
- 1. It was hotter than Henry’s crack!
- 2. I’m not eating a lot of sweets right now….and the funnel cakes were too tempting!
- 3. We didn’t have any of those fold up canvas chairs
- 4. I couldn’t find the people painting faces…and I really wanted a frog or bug or something
- 5. Did I mention that it was hotter than snot?
- 6. And my hair was stuck to my forehead
- 7. And there was a river of sweat running down my chest…I know lovely…
- 8. My Sno-Cone was gone
- 9. There was a fabric sale at Yates Remnant Store and I didn’t have money
- 10. There was 45 more minutes to wait until the parade started
- 11. I realized that the parade would be a bunch of cars with city officials waving…boring…
- 12. I remembered that the man who belly dances in the parade has retired
- 13. Did I mention that it was so hot that it felt like hell was rolling in?
