I Am Old Glory:
For more than ten score years I have been the banner of hope and freedom for generation after generation of Americans.
Born amid the first flames of America's fight for freedom, I am the symbol of a country that has grown from a little group of thirteen colonies to a united nation of fifty sovereign states.
Planted firmly on the high pinnacle of American Faith my gently fluttering folds have proved an inspiration to untold millions.
Men have followed me into battle with unwavering courage.
They have looked upon me as a symbol of national unity.
They have prayed that they and their fellow citizens might continue to enjoy the life, liberty and pursuit of happiness, which have been granted to every American as the heritage of free men.
So long as men love liberty more than life itself; so long as they treasure the priceless privileges bought with the blood of our forefathers; so long as the principles of truth, justice and charity for all remain deeply rooted in human hearts, I shall continue to be the enduring banner of the United States of America.

I'm hoping it will cool off like it did last night. Dusk is my favorite time of day in the summer. It's not super hot, but it's not cold either. Sorta inbetween. I love it. ^^ I just like sitting out side, watching the sky(if there is clouds) and just enjoying the nice weather.
I wish I could see the fireworks from the stadium. They're always pretty good. But there are too many trees and houses in the way to see that far away. But I guess I should be paying attention to all the other idiots in my hood. xD
Oh! I have poppers. Yay. ^^ But they arn't colorful. D: That's no good. I remeber one year, my dad got sparklers. And we went in the backyard and lit them with the BBQ. Haha. It was fun. But then I found out they were illigal. O: Oh well. At least they were colorful!
You have poppers? ;3;
