I'm happy to have left LiveJournal for regular posting. But I miss one features: friends-only posting. The only way to do that on my blog would be to provide people with their own usernames and passwords, which is just silly.
So this summer, which has been difficult, has seen a number of draft posts written and discarded for just such a reason. (This is really why I've not been updating the blog...because I can't figure out how to say what it is that I want to say.)
And now, despite the difficulties we've had, I don't want summer to be over. I am not ready for fall. I need more time in shorts; more time at a pool or at a beach; more time being warm. I definitely need more time to visit with people. (It's only slightly ironic that I completely forgot about Valpo's homecoming this weekend. 
)
But fall is here. Schools are in session. Lives are busy. The autumnal equinox was this week and the days are already so much shorter. As a result outdoor evening activities are becoming less and less frequent. I just feel like I'm losing time while losing the light.
So it goes.
