Summer is over.

Today people are back to school and work. Bleary-eyed and awkwardly holding their backpacks, many students are aboard at this fine early hour.

I give it a week and some of this newness will be replaced with open books reading that mornings homework, and the calm regularity of life in full swing.

Side note: if you spent $50 on a hair cut that causes you to jerk your neck every 15 seconds to get the swath of hair out of your eyes, you paid too much.
