AAA- not just on tv! and aliens too.

the vampires are gonna have to wait. this is more important.

so last night, i went to a concert with mom and dad- they were playing down by the water- there were fireworks and all( on the third!) and it was cool. they did some stuff from beauty and the beast, west side story and sound of music- and some patriotic stuff too. they actually asked everyone to sing along- i did!

at around 10, we started for home, but decided to stop for ice cream. we did, but then couldn't get the car to start- something was wrong with the 28 year old key. it was worn down, and we had no spare. just then, lo and behold, apeared a AAA guy, who had stopped for coffee!
you know those ads, right? on tv? were the car runs out of gas, late at night, and then there is a knock at the window, and its a AAA guy? i thought that was all just stupid tv gimmicks. but it happened for real! they guy gave my mom and me a ride to our house, to get a spare key for the car( half way there dad dod something with a screwdriver that MR AAA had recomended, and got the car working.)
cool, huh?
i also bought 4 fantasy novels at The Other Change of Hobbit, a local fantasy sci fi book store.
that was my day.

today, well, this morning i saw the last half of Ibndapendace day, which caused me to go into Bruce Coville is AMAZING mode. if you've seen indapendance day, and read any of BC's sci fi stuff( i recomend the ' aliens ate my homework' quartet, as well as the short story 'in our own hands') you will know what i'm talking about.
'in our own hands' does make some good points, though, and it is more on par with the subject of freedom, the world has a whole, choosing, so on and so forth
