This post will have very little to do with dogs, and a lot to do with July 4th celebrations.
Our town has its fireworks spectacular on the 3rd and it's a big deal. We have it at the fairgrounds, a band plays, it's all for free and we usually get about 8,000 people. As in the past, I join a large group of friends that has a huge area roped off and typicall there are about 150 people hanging together eating, drinking, playing and enjoying the day. It's great and I love it.
One friend in this group has always stood out. It's like my friend Shannon in California - when we get together it's combustible and I find myself in situations I wouldn't normally, and the result is usually that I hurt myself from laughing so much. Well last night was no different. There she was, and we ran to each other and I'd heard she'd had some surgery but couldn't find out the nature of it. I'd deduced that it was something motorcycle-related as she had acquired a Harley lately and was frequently falling over on it while driving too slowly. Sure enough when I asked her she said it was her wrist, but when I looked at her wrist I didn't see anything so a little red flag went up.
Other people were around so I just wrote it off. A few moments later she came over and said she'd forgotten to give me a hug and as we embraced she whispered in my ear "I had my boobs done. They don't look real. When it gets dark there will be a show."
Here we go again.
Actually it wasn't as dramatic as that, when it got dark and right before the fireworks began a group of us ladies snuck into a friend's trailer and she bared all for us to see. I'd never seen freshly operated on boobs and it didn't look bad at all, in fact I found myself having boob envy and told her so. Another gal there had hers done a few years back and told her to expect certain things to move and it will look more natural as the months go on. But there we were, her half-naked and all of us ooohing and ahhing this masterwork. Not your typical gathering but when she's involved, it never is and I love her for it!
