| | It seems like fall wants to be here, but can't get here. Does that make any sense? You probably know what I'm talking about if you live in Atlanta. It's still way too hot for September. Tonight it feels cool and crisp outside, but that's how it should feel during the day. It's so hot that our neighborhood pool is still open. I feel gypped (Yes, that is one correct spelling of the word--I looked it up on dictionary.com), like we're owed more fall time because it starts so late here. At least the leaves still change colors. When we first moved here I was worried that this would not happen in Atlanta. I don't know why I thought that.
My favorite DC fall activity was going to the National Book Festival. Of course we can't go this year. So in lieu of our annual fall tradition, I decided to buy three bookcases from IKEA and organize our book collection, which has gotten a bit out of control since we ran out of bookshelf space a few months ago. Our unused living room will soon be transformed into a faux bookstore, if you will, since there is no bookstore (gasp) in Woodstock. I'm also looking for some new titles to add to our collection. Any suggestions?
Books on my to-read list:
1. there is no me without you
2. A True and Faithful Narrative
3. Soupy Saturdays with the Pain and the Great One
4. The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao
On a side note...GO EAGLES! Yes, I know they lost last Sunday, but I am still hopeful. By the way, The Sports Gal writes a funny rant on ESPN.com's Page 2.
