Hubcaps and Fireworks

The 4th of July weekend began on thursday. I arrived home in Livermore around 4pm to an empty house. I pet my dog, I enjoyed the vacancy of the house. Soon my sister came and I talked to her a bit, then my dad came. I think we played ping pong. My sister left. We went to Foster Freeze for dinner and a milkshake. A summer tradition. I think maybe one reason it hasn't felt like summer is because I didn't have this milkshake. Every summer I get a milkshake with my dad, sometimes with my mom as well. Yet so far in this summer I hadn't had one. Now I have and I think it may contribute to summer feeling more like summer. Hopefully.
I'm trying to figure out what to play on itunes. Lately none of my music has appealed to me. I feel burnt out on music. At least my music. And that makes me sad.
After dinner I went out with Heather. This was nice. I hadn't seen her for quite sometime and being able to walk around with her and just talk was good. We ended up going to her friend's house and watching Darjeeling Limited. I liked it. Though I think I have to watch it again to like it more. We then went to her other friend's house, Brendan. He was a cutie so was his friend. That was fun too even though I felt a little awkward because of not knowing anyone but H. But I still enjoyed watching everyone and listening. I got home at 1:30am and fell asleep.
The next day was 4th of July and it ended up being pretty laid back. I went to the park and played baseball with my dad. It was fun, I hadn't pitched and hit for a long time. I miss it. Unfortunately I don't really know anyone who will play with me other than my dad. Bbqed with the parents for dinner then went to another of H's friend's houses. Watched the fireworks there then went to another person's house and played ping pong, listened to them play drums and guitar and smoked a lil hookah. I hadn't done that in awhile. It reminded me of Sean's apartment and my sister. I think that's the only reason I smoked it.
Yesterday, saturday. I got new tires on my car. I picked her up, everything looked fine. Then I drive to Heather's to pick her up for movie and notice that the driver's side tire hubcap is missing. Gasp. Bitches. I never heard it come off. I'm wondering if it came off in the car wash. Probably. After seeing WALL-E (which was stupendous), I called them and they agreed to replace it without argument. Good. I hung around the house the rest of the day and later watched Once with the parents. That movie is lovely. I liked it better the second time. I think I appreciated the music even more because I was more concentrated on it rather than having to focus on the story. Even though the music is the story. Beautiful.
Today was a lazy day. Again I hung around with the parents. Played ping pong, ate pizza came back to Rohnert Park. Even though it was a pretty laid back 4th of July weekend, it was enjoyable. Life is pretty good right now. I have a summer fling going. (The waiter) I have work going. I have life going. It's going...
