Well, it's not quite fall, and the weather is still hot and muggy. But I'm exhausted from the summer, and struggling to just keep going until the crisp air of the autumn perks me up. We've turned off the AC for the year it seems, to save money and it's hot enough to sweat but not enough to make it unbearable. I'm looking forward to a few things though, like practicing music with other people, with the samba percussion group and another world music ensemble coming up.
