Look, I’m not going to complain about one of the three days of the three day weekend being dark and drizzly. I’m not like that. I used some of the day productively, and the rest of it I wasted playing Neopets.

Junior and I cleaned out his bookcase of all the books he’s outgrown and/or doesn’t like. There were quit a few, and no, nothing went into the yard sale box that *I* wanted to keep. Well, actually one went in there that I’ll probably fish out before I bring it to my mom’s house for the yard sale. I think I’ll keep it for my future grandchildren, Casey and Christopher (why yes, my son has already picked out names for my future grandchildren. He’s going to have a boy and a girl.)

Now I have to tackle my bookcases. I have kept many books on the shelves that I just will never read, or read again, and while I want to keep every book I’ve ever bought, I just don’t want the house to collapse under the weight of my bookcase. So I’ve started the discard process. But I’m going to yard sale them, so that’s not throwing them away. That’s recycling. And any that don’t sell, we can donate. I may pack some up to send to an AnySoldier address…

Mike and Ike Root Beer Float candies – I don’t particularly like them. The root beer flavor isn’t strong enough – there’s too much of a vanilla edge, which I guess is why it’s called a root bear float. I’d say don’t bother, unless you are a die-hard rootbeer fan.

Happy 4th of July! And 5th of July, which appears to be the official day of celebration this year.

Anybody else remember reading about how they celebrated the 4th of July in the Little House on the Prairie books? The whole town gathering for contests, races, some kind of picnic with lemonade. Lemonade is the one item that stuck out in my head.

Unless I’m misremembering, and if I am, well, close enough, right?

I love looking at clouds. Just love it. Here’s the view from the front seat as we drove down route 2 yesterday. Obviously, these don’t do justice, but hey, you should have been out there yesterday, right?

We took a field trip to the Ecotarium in Worcester to see the Frogs! exhibit. Here’s the coolest one, flat up on the glass of the tank, he’s got his feet, etc. tucked flat underneath himself

I added a Google search box over on the right to make it easier to search the Dump archives. Or, if you love me, you’ll notice what section I put the search box in, and perhaps use it whenever you need to look for something?

I did a random search and came up with an oldie but goodie issue of the Dump. Here’s my favorite part:

Product Idea

I came up with the name for a new Victoria’s Secret product. If any of you readers work for VS, could you tell me who do call with my idea? I call it “Bunderwear.” The opposite of a thong, it actually covers your cheeks. I personally think it may be the next big thing.

Either that or I’m really overtired. That would explain a LOT of things.
