the death of summer is the birth of me

Contrary to our friend j. I'm feeling quite content back at home. With all the traveling August seems to have taken flight. And with the end so near, I've only had a few days to thoroughly relax. This week has been so very relaxing. School begins on monday, with work the following week. Tomorrow I celebrate the end of my summer in the usual fashion, A Birthday! Shall we look back at this month of gusto?
