end of summer

i declared the summer over last saturday. at least for myself. i figured it would be easier for me to narrativize these past few months by giving it start and end dates marked by mirrored events: the two times seeing cory branan [pictured to the right with the porn guy] perform at jake's.
i can now rest a little easier knowing that it's useless to complain or worry about the coming of fall because, symbolically, it's already here.

i promised myself i wouldn't talk about luck any more on here because it's starting to get more than a little old. but it was a summer filled with both the good and the bad varieties in plenty. i guess it doesn't hurt that i'm living in a city whose very name attributes luck to divinity.

but it's done now. wrapped up. adam (a more physical manifestation of the presence of summer) has left, swapping coasts with mike who will arrive (and make his blog-debut, right mike?) shortly.

on top of it all, my childhood home [left] just went on the market and will be "mine" for not very much longer. i'd think this is a good time to say that the summer is over and that the daunting final year of school has begun.

let's hope i'm employed, or at least a big-time lottery winner, by the time this indomitable season returns.



p.s. adam - we found the dave matthews band and oasis cds. shame on you.
