I'm sitting here, on my bed, trying to convince myself to start actually laying down and getting closer to sleeping, since I've been so sleepy lately (I'm blaming hormones, because I'm not normally this tired. I took a nap this evening, and I'm still kind of tired).
And then, I hear them.
Pop, pop, wrrrrrreeeeeee (that spelling is as close as I can get to the whistle sound).
Fireworks.
They are illegal inside city limits (even on the 4th, unless the government has approved the show, which they wouldn't at this time of day). Plus, I'm sure they are breaking another few laws regarding when noisy things can be done in a neighborhood.
It's after midnight, so it's no longer the 4th. And all I can think is why are they still firing off fireworks. They had at least 2 and 1/2 hours before this, while it was still the 4th but after the local approved fireworks, to have shot all their fireworks off.
And I wonder if I should call the cops. I mean, Ace has to work tomorrow and he needs his sleep (not that the fireworks woke him up). And anyway, what they are doing isn't legal. And then, the sounds stop. And I realize that it probably wouldn't have been worth it anyway.
But it was still annoying.

When I first moved into my house, I couldn't figure why I would randomly hear fireworks. Like in October... It was totally bizarre! Then I realize it was Friday night. And I live a mile from a high school. And they would score touchdowns. Yeah, I'm a smart one...
