'Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better.' - Samuel Beckette,

I hope you all had a happy 4th of July. Strangely enough, the 4th was never a very big holiday for my family when I was in the States. Now that I'm here though, I miss its droning presence at the start of every July, as if the holiday itself were chiming the halfway mark of summer. To celebrate I bought fireworks. I ended up lighting them off with 5 Australians, a Scotsman, and one other American. It was the first time I had legally light fireworks.
This poem needs to be read.In closing, things are ok, life moves forward. Sam and Molly visit soon.
