During the first week of September, the crispness in the air always reminds me of how it felt when school was just around the corner. You'd think about what you didn't do all summer, and make plans to pack all you could into those last few days. But then it hits you! That darn school assignment! Did you know anyone who work on that stuff in Week 1-9? I sure didn't. And on top of all that, it was time for your mother to drag you to the store for new school clothes. Geez, what happened to the stuff I just wore 2 months ago? In Brooklyn, it was off to John's Bargain Store or Floyd's or any nearby Army Navy store. I don't know what they'd call you now, but back in those days, if you had some extra girth, you'd have to try on the HUSKY size of dungarees (not jeans, they were dungarees, although that name makes it sound like the pants are made out of cow pies).
And while we're not on the subject, just sold a copy on Ebay of Smashing Pumpkins limited box of Teargarden by Kalaeidyscope Volume 1. Sweet.
I don't remember writing being this tiring.
