what happened to september?

i missed it. i'd swear it didn't happen if i didn't have an email box full of spam and some crazy bank statements to prove that it did. i think i just mentally checked out for a month, but i am back now. and ready for the freshness of fall. the slate's not blank by any means but who cares layers of chalk build character (thanks heather). I have a show opening on Friday and some very supportive friends and family who are coming to enjoy the festivities and a day off of work (my first in more than two weeks!). despite putting in over 50 hours in 5 days, i think its going to be a good week.
