...and just like that, it's all over.
It's not like I didn't accomplish anything during this past week or so. I built a compost bin. I finally managed to get the patio table out of the basement and onto the patio. I bought a ton of retro-junk that will almost certainly figure into upcoming posts. I got to enjoy New England's first monsoon season (not that Al Gore is right about global warming or anything) from the comfort and safety of my home in the Woburn Highlands.
As bad as playing catch-up as work will be, it's nothing I haven't handled a dozen times before, yet I still can't shake the feeling that my stay of execution is about to elapse. Does the condemned have any last requests? Yes, dispense with the last meal and bring me some fine, fine L.A. power pop to comfort me in my indolence's dying hours...

I think its tragic that Americans get so little time away from work....
We Brits are among the meanest in Europe when it comes to getting paid vacation time from our employers...and even then I'm on 5 weeks a year plus about 12 single-day Bank/Public Holidays.
I'm real sorry it all passed so quickly. (Great pic by the way...)
Aww, sweet, happy kitty! I love seeing cats who smile.
