So, I've been revising. Reading. Trying to find two seconds to remember what a life feels like. Not that I'm complaining. Definitely not complaining. Honestly, I love being busy. If I don't have something to do, I'm listless, lost.
As Normal Human Being Me, I've been to the movies (The Dark Knight Returns) and took a day trip to the Monterey Bay Aquarium. It was a long drive (2 hours each way), but well worth it since it's been years since I've been there.
It was beautiful, relaxing, and so much fun. Plus I got some great pictures. I saw fish, eels, and tidepools, oh my. :)
Plus, the weather wasn't so bad either.
All in all, things have been good. I'm blessed and busy, excited and nervous, and doing a good job of holding it all together.
Here in San Francisco, we've been waiting for our real summer, which comes in September. Until then we're lucky if we hit seventy degrees. Most days are foggy, too, but today the sun is around. Indian summer, please come soon.
And now that you've listened to me ramble, I want to know what all of you been up to. Summer is almost over. Sad, I know, but true. Did you do anything special? Go out of town? Or read under your favorite tree? This is my favorite part about blogging. I want to hear from you. :)

I love visiting aquariums! Haven't been in a while but it's always fun. Summer is pretty unpredictable in London though. Most of the time August/July is full of rain and September brings the heatwaves. :D
I'm looking forward to reading A Shimmer of Angels! :)
