it's august. how awful.

there are a lot of great things about august. nice weather. seri's bday. my papabear's bday. my babybrother's bday. but then ...

you have the advent of school. bleah! i'm kind of excited about it ... but going back to a 7a-7p schedule sits poorly with me. and all the work that is still undone ... i think janice would say that deserves a sad wanh. bleat bleat wimper.

you have a surge in the wedding 2004 circuit. august 7th. august 14th. karen and i have decided that the worst job in a wedding is NOT the gift table; it's clean up duty. that sucks a bunch. fwhen (if/when) i get married ... this is why i teach and schmooze my children. that way, i can heavily recruit from my KIDS to do all the dirty work. booyah! i'm a genius.

you have family circus. on a much smaller scale than the horror of august '02, mind you, but still ... 3 loud canto families and my grandma ... mmm ... mixed bag at best.

this is to say nothing of continued meetin' and greetin'. and there you have it. bye bye august.
