August: What's in a Name?

Well, for one thing it's the name of the month in which all hopes of rest & relaxation end. Work's pretty demanding (the district manager is a borderline psychotic), school begins again in 2 weeks (like Sociology, who uses Human Services?), Bubba's daycare moved into a new building which is a bigger pain to get to in the morning AND I've chosen this time to begin my second book in earnest. Actually, more like2: one like the first in many ways (it's also a parody), the second more of a humourous parable novel. We'll see which gets done first. I figure the more books out there, the better chance I have of making money.

Plus, bills are piling up again without even trying. Gaaah.

So I'll not miss these dog days of Summer. They were too hot too often, which drove up my electric bill. But the next season doesn't look to offer much better.

And don't get me started on my mother...
