September Haze -------------- Although it may not seem like it, I generally don't like writing waffly "status report" entries. On the other hand, I don't want the phlog to stagnate, and I've nothing else really to say. So here we are. September's been a bit of a strange month for me. I have several looming deadlines over which I should be panicking, but for some reason - perhaps I'm just getting old? - I'm finding it really hard to care sufficiently to make genuine progress on them. I suspect (hope?) this malaise is extremely fragile and will immediately shatter when the real world repercussions of missed deadlines start to manifest, but it's definitely something new to me. Perhaps it's just the combined effects of the previous year's multitudinous weirdnesses finally catching up with me. Okay, that's it. Ciao for now...
