It's Going Fast

I don't really know where the time has gone. I looked at the calendar and realized that the dog days of August are almost upon us. This led me to check my little black book (Yes, I have one) to see if I had accomplished everything I wanted to do this summer. Here's a partial rundown of what is in my little black book: 1. Go fishing at least one day a week [x] 2. Go to the movies at least 3 times [x] 3. Mow the lawn without having a nervous breakdown [x] 4. Go to the beach for a week [x] 5. Keep my air conditioning bill under 300 bucks [x] (so far) 6. Go see a play in the woods [x] 7. Win the lottery [ ] 8. Solve the NY Times crossword [ ] 9. Buy a new lawn mower [ ] 10. Meet Tom Cruise [ ] I'm batting .600, (6 for 10) which is pretty good. I've got a lot more things on my list to get done. I'd better hurry because summer is going fast.
