2nd Amendment Security

I slept well last night, for the first time in a week. Maybe it was because the temperature got below eighty five. Maybe it was because I knew it was my last night without Jen. Maybe it was because there weren't any explosions late at night.

Someone tried to blow up our mailbox two nights ago, probably with some sort of firecracker. It was around 1am when it happened, and it woke me up and scared me half to death, but I didn't realize what it was until I saw the mailbox the next morning. But, having learned from past hoodlums, after the last incident we purchased a higher quality mailbox and I am happy to report that it withstood the blast while retaining only minor affects. This isn't the first time someone has tried to destroy our mailbox- it seems to be a 4th of July sport for the jerks in our area. Maybe it was the hog farmer that did it! I saw a sign once that warned that a building was protected by "2nd Amendment Security". I'm all for that, but by the time I would have gotten outside it would have been too late...

So Jen is coming home today. I am using stiff, expensive frosting that you can roll out with a rolling pin to decorate cakes to look like pointe shoes. And we're cleaning house and decorating with streamers, balloons, etc. We painted the hallway and I cleaned our room, so it looks real nice. Her plane was delayed an hour, but that seems to be almost normal nowadays.
She'll be home soon; I'm excited!
