beginnings
September was off to a rockin' start. Literally -- on the first night we got our minds blown by Elvis Costello in the 4th row, with a surprise appearance by PATTI GRIFFIN, and you can't really ask for much more from an evening or a next morning or a life. At the end of the first week, skwerlie added her unique brand of awesomeness to our lives and it felt so good to see her and Roland and know they're happy together and getting a much-needed vacation.
But the end of September was, with various okay-this-is-much-better sparkles in it, an energy leak the likes of which I haven't experienced since I had a reason. Yes, I miss my dad, and that comes in floods sometimes, and is just a part of living, but there were no anniversaries to trigger this one, just...I don't know. Autumn weight?
But now I can hold this. Summer -- well -- before Summer ='d grad school -- was always a dreamy blur of giggles and hyper music and silly erotica and flirtations and anything that seemed important was important in the "ooh this scene has a sexy song playing in the background and really good cinematography" way. Not Important in the Life What It All Means kinda way. Not that the former doesn't possess its own meaning, of course.
Anyway.
I'm ready now.
I can hold this cooling air and I feel excited for what this means. Art shows to review! Concerts to see! SO MANY MOVIES I'M EXCITED ABOUT.
My calender declares October already.
Let's go.
