4th of July

So I was stuck in Sacramento for the 4th this year because my cousins flew in from Italy today. It's fine, because I'm still a bit out of sorts from being sick all week.

I spent some time sitting on the front lawn watching the neighbors set off fireworks, but they seemed rather pathetic this year. None of them seemed to last very long, nor were they very interesting. Perhaps it was the fact that I wasn't lighting things on fire.

Now I'm sitting inside watching Casino Royale, because what could be more patriotic than showing a marathon of movies about a British spy on the USA network? I've realized that while I'm not yet prepared to admit that Daniel Craig is the best Bond (I haven't seen the second one yet) I am willing to admit that he is the best looking one.
