Have an incredibly fabulous weekend, on me



When I was little, my momma used to tell me the fireworks were just for me.
Sometimes seeing those bright, celebratory lights, I believed it. I'm a big lover of birthdays, you see.
Sometimes, I still believe it. Shh, don't tell. Besides, my birthday cake was always traded for barbecue anyway, so a girl has got to have something, no?

Enjoy the weekend. And enjoy being a part of what our great country is about. No, not the flame-ridden streets - but the freedom to be a part of something, and the freedom to have our family close. The freedom to believe what we want and yet to all be united.
