August




Feels like I've been running on vitamin C and cocaine, as they used to say.  Pushed too hard and now feel broke.  Not sure that the effort will pay off in any way.  Pretty certain it won't.  Then comes the blues, time when everything seems to be stacked against you, when you feel yourself so far outside you can't imagine what you were thinking.  Living in time and space instead of place.  One thing, and then another, first slowly, then quickly.

That is how it gets for everybody sometimes.  It is August now, and people toute le monde are closing shop to go on vacation.  I'm worn out and must follow suit.  Fewer postings this month.  August.  It can be a killer.  I think I need to float.
