Autumn Winter

I felt it this weekend. The foreshadow of autumn. Autumn doesn't even feel like a full season in New York. It's just the prologue to a long, barren, insufferable winter.

Heat-waves and thunderstorms aside, I kind of developed an affection for this summer. It may have been those long, contemplative walks to and from the theater. The sunny walks home from work.

I have some fear for the coming autumn and winter. The cold brings back memories. Everything is new and I'm a new person, but you never can tell when memories are going to sucker-punch you. They hit so hard.

Year's not over, though. Shitloads to do yet.
