Well, hi there summer vacation! Hi lazy, workless days with no editing or proof reading or telephone calls or deadlines or having to be on time for anything. I’ve missed you so much!
And hi there being up too late at night, sleeping in too long in the morning and missing people trying to get in touch with me on the phone or ringing the doorbell, and then feeling ashamed when they ask where I was and needlessly lying about it because I didn’t want to admit I was still sleeping at 1 pm, and so feeling like a complete idiot when they see through my pathetic lie but are too nice to call me on it, and then having to chant humiliation is good for the soul in my head for the next six hours or so before I start to feel like myself again.
The whole thing would be so much less stupid if I was younger and actually didn’t know any better.
