Like Seven Inches From The Midday Sun

Well, it's August in the South... On a good day, it's 96º with only 70% humidity. Most days, though, it's more like 101º+ with 80% or better. Either way it's hot enough to make the devil sweat. It's been a while since I've written. It seems I only write when I'm down, frustrated, or mad. Not that I haven't been all of those things a few times since I wrote last but, sometimes I just drink instead. This is one of those times that I dread each year... It is the month of Woulda... The 6th woulda been my grandfather's birthday - this year he woulda been 89. The 8th woulda been my 23rd anniversary. The 24th marks 6 years since I went back to school after 18 years. I guess if I woulda done better in high school, it wouldn't have taken so long. I guess if I woulda gone to a better college, I woulda had better job by now. Speaking of the job, this month also marks my anniversary on the job. The pay is not bad for a puppet but I just never was the puppet ...
