Nothing. I managed to go out and see some fireworks last night, (though anything that goes into the air and explodes is banned here, but nobody cares), and that's pretty much it. I like to sit around on holida-I mean, don't do much on holidays. ^^

Well, Galveston County (where I live, but I live in a city full of trees) isn't banned but just about everywhere else is.

Yay for Texas droughts! xD Where I recently moved (near Austin area) no fireworks can be fired off, but I assume (like back in Christmas) they'll set some fireworks further away, so we might be able to see them.

Apparent in south Texas, according to my friend, they're setting fireworks, which is weird because it's a bunch of crops and cattle.

Well, we don't celebrate the 4th of July because we're Mexican; we just set off fireworks when we're allowed. However, I still give thanks to the fact that the US gained its independence on this day. Even though I was only born here and have no family roots, I'll be selfish and foolish to dismiss the fact that being an American citizen has given me more opportunities that I could have hoped for.

Oh yes, as to what I'm actually doing, nothing, really. My parents out of town to finish bringing out belongings to our new house. My brother and I have been alone since yesterday morning, taking care of our shipload of pets and hijacking internet.

I think Galveston was the only city that fired them this year. Houston might have, but I'd have to check with Mario on that. xD
I was so glad that fireworks were banned in my city though. People in my neighborhood go INSANE with the fireworks when there's an event that calls for them. Back on New Years, people were still popping them a month later.

Austin area? :o I'll be a couple of hours away in San Antonio in the last week of July. xD

My past neighbors would also go crazy, but that's because we Mexicans. Some of us just want an excuse to shoot off their guns and play loud music. Since we were outside the city limits, the police let them be.

Yeah, Hutto, to be exact. Blink while you're driving, and you'll miss it. xDD
