CC Staff Rant: Fireworks and Feeling Guilty

Have you cracked out the hot dogs yet? The chips? The sparklers that you fully intend to try and burn your friends with? Well, us too. July 4th — even if you do nothing but stare at a grill for three hours or eat coleslaw with your fingers while watching fireworks on TV — is a day that just yells celebration. It’s summer. It’s a long weekend. Watermelon is in abundance…what isn’t there to love?

    For fear of being web-attacked, I haven’t said anything yet, but as a frequent reader of this site I find that these posts of your conversations aren’t really that interesting. I just don’t find reading someone else’s conversations interesting.

    Jess,

    We are often uninteresting.

    But I really think more people need to know about John and Kate Plus 8.

    Never fear being web-attacked.

    I LOVE John and Kate Plus 8.

    I am one of eight, I think maybe that has something to do with it.

    Wait…no. Nothing to do with it. I love Aiden and John and Maddie and Kate and that poor aunt who deals with them on a weekly basis.

Tell us what you're thinking...
