Just for people I know? It just seemed so blah in so many ways and nobody I talked to seemed to be having a great time. My initial plans with my boyfriend
fell through because he canceled on me, so I called two other friends and went to the town fireworks instead. It was so crowded everywhere but I expected that,
and the line to the bathroom was super long, they barely had toliet paper and no soap at all -- just water. Which was gross. After waiting around with my
friends and being beyond bored and sort of grumpy about my former plans, we were ready to find a spot for fireworks. We actually got to see the fireworks in my
town without rain ruining it, but the fireworks were almost mediocre, and there was this loud music they kept playing during the fireworks that really ruined
the experience. Plus it just seemed so trashed out there when it totally shouldn't have been, not when things were far from over, but I guess if idiots out
there can't keep from trashing the area the moment they step foot on the property then it's our own fault. It started to rain when we were about to
leave so we had to get going once I finally started having a good time with other people we found there. I don't know, it was really not the best. I was
excited for yesterday and it just seemed like a cloud hung over the whole day.

Sucked. I was going to go the Inner Harbor, but it starting raining right at the time everything was going on, and I was not about to stand in the rain from 5
to 10pm. So, we just stayed home and chilled.

Mine was pretty nice actually. We had a cookout with our neighbors and then we went to a really nice park here for Shakespeare in the Park. While there was no
play we still had a nice picnic with my in-laws. After that we went to a fireworks displays that was freakin amazing. So yeah, it was good. Tonight I go to my
20th high school reunion too so it's a pretty good weekend.

Mine sucked! And I'm in daytona.. I ended up having to pay 30 dollars for my meal then no one wanted to see the fireworks then everyone decided to go to
bed at like 10! We're going to the Daytona 400 today so hopefully that makes up for it.

mine was good until I had to come home and keep an eye on my dog. He gets anxiety with anything loud. There was a party going on across the street, and they
were setting off fireworks from 8:30 until 11, even though it was raining. He was freaking the whole night.

Well I worked all night then came home and ate dinner that was a few hours old. I then played with my cats while I played on the internet. My fiance played a
video game in the other room. So mine was just loads of fun...

Mine sucked. But I'm in England for the summer, so it was kind of expected.

Sucked for me. I had to bag like 15 20lb bags of ice and over 20 6lb bags of ice after everyone and their brother bought bags. Our beer coolers were bare too.
I was so happy when 1:30 came around and I could lock up the coolers.
Also, I work right at the line of city limits so there were TONS of people outside the city setting stuff off but I couldn't go out to see anything cause I was ringing everything up. |

I thought it was going to suck at first since a huge rain came through. We kept on watching the news and they said the fireworks were still on so we drove over
there and hung out in the car. It suddenly stopped raining and we trekked all 3 kids to go watch it. I liked it a lot and I filmed all the fireworks and my
kids reactions to it. One of them acutally fell asleep during it but it was the first time everyone saw fireworks.

For once, I actually had a good one. I've never celebrated with any of my friends before so we had a big bbq yesterday and the neighbors were setting off
fireworks which was cool to watch. It was great that it didn't start to rain til 10pm.

Besides watching my fiance puke I had a really nice 4th of July. I had homemade BBQ with my best friend and she and her whole family bought us wedding
presents. She made us open them in front of everyone and even made us a wedding cake. We're just going to get married by the Justice of the Peace in Hawaii
since that's what started all of this. We got to share a bottle of Dom Perignon and then watched their neighbors kid almost hurt himself with firecrackers.

Mine was lame too. One friend went to Vegas with her parents, the boy has a crapload of family in from out of state so he was at those festivities, I had to
work, as did other friends. So I was home by 9, watching Music & Lyrics, then I was in bed by 12
