But did it ever come? I have to say the weather around here certainly has been really lack luster for summer. Except for this weekend its been unusually cool. Seriously I want my money back! Is that possible Tom Skilling? You know by now I would have posted things on here about all the wonderful things we’ve done so far, and sadly it seems like we really haven’t done that much but yet we actually have. If you follow my twitter stream there’s all kinds of stuff going on. We’ve gone to Michigan (and we’re going again one final time next weekend), Durand a couple of times, downtown to the Field Museum, a NIN show, the St. Charles Riverfest right off the top of my head. We’ve also had a great time doing stuff with the neighbors too. Seems like a lot doesn’t it? How come I feel like its been wasted?
Maybe its the old familiar feeling in the back of my brain that school is just around the corner, and I’m regretting skipping Lollapalooza this year. Nah not really, it was damn hot this weekend. You know its funny I have not been to actual school in such a long time, yet it still haunts me for some reason. Its like I’m afraid I’ll wake up in class one day in my underwear. I suppose working at NIU doesn’t help. But now I can transfer these anxieties to Erik, who will be starting Kindergarten in a couple of weeks. That just blows my mind that he’s actually starting school. Our little Erik is going to school! Holy crap they are right the time just does seem to slip away.
Its getting late, time to sign off and get ready for my final week of summer hours and then its back to the ole grind stone.
