The return of Summer

Just a few weeks before the fall arrives.  Nice one.

The weather has reflected my mood of late: cool, chill, and comfortable.  I have more projects at work to keep me busy and productive, which staves off the boredom.  Today I got to play Santa Claus and hand about about a dozen flat screen monitors.  I'd love to hand out to myself sometimes soon, to say nothing of the flat screen TV's that are creeping up in my friends' homes.  Next year.

Next year is my mantra right now, for many things.  September is poised for the big push on my last remaining pile of debt.  Once I slay this monster, I'll be able to start indulging in some wanderlust.  The biggest hurdle between me and travel has always been money.  When I was younger I didn't have it to throw around, and we came from a family of modest means.  When I moved to Boston I started making money, but big expenses cropped up:  new car, new bed, unemployment.  One by one each obstacle was paid for and fell.  With nothing left to stand in my way, I can finally see the sun rise in London, set in Seattle, swim in the Carribean, or dance in the legendary halls of Ibiza. 

Not a bad goal for 2008.
