Summer Ends

Seagull, Pigeon, or Crow? Seagull, eventhough the crow is more asthetically pleasing.

It reallly feels like Fall now. There is some sort of emotional quality to Fall, which I can never explain, but I can feel it once it happens. Maybe it just has to do with the waning ammount of daylight. Regardless, I know the summer's over now. In lieu of that: my Summer Mix, which is created mostly out of hindsight.

A sophomore boy came into my room tonight, shook my hand, introduced himself, and asked me for audition advice. Guess I really am a big kid now. The little moments put the larger ones in context. Thank you for that.

I am exhausted but can't sleep, and I have become very good at making a vodka tonic.

Goodnight, Summer.
