September kind of sucked, just like summer kind of sucked.
But rather than dwell on the lowlights (throat infection, lack of running, rampant illness at work, cell phone being stupid, the first major storm coming in early like an unwelcome preview of winter, etc.) I will instead focus on the positives from the month:
- I rediscovered a bunch of old music–and still like it!
- I’ve started reading The Dark Tower after having bought the first novel decades ago and am finding it a good romp so far.
- The last day of summer was pleasantly warm and sunny.
- My birthday was quiet but nice.
- I got a replacement phone (just today) that will hopefully not excel in mysterious battery drain like its predecessor.
- I did not get hit by a blimp.
Onward to October, the first day of which promises to be wet and unseasonably cold. Hooray!
