Bye-bye summer

Is it just me, or did it suddenly turn into fall immediately after Labor Day?  It seems to have immediately turned darker and cooler overnight.

Speaking of fall, I have made an Important Decision.  Seeing as I'm taking the subject GREs in November and I have to take the general test as well at some point, I don't have all that much extra time to waste.  So I've decided to cut way back on my drinking.  Not that I consider the amount that I drink to be all that excessive, but the idea of trying to study when I have a hangover is a complete joke.  So between now and then (with the probable exception of Halloween) I am going to start imposing strict drink limits when I go out so that I know that I can accomplish things the next day.

Aaanyway, gotta go start getting ready for work.  We're partially moving into a newly renovated space tomorrow and losing a certain amount of our current space, so things are bound to be crazy as we're trying to find room for everything and organize it all.

OK, old-boring-person interjection -

Yes, NOT drinking so much you are nonfunctional the next day is definitely a better choice.

You don't want to know how much all us old fogeys laugh at the students who drag themselves in very obviously under the weather from the previous night's beverage consumption...

It's not necessarily that I'm non-functional, it's just generally that studying requires a level of discipline and motivation that is generally lacking if I've had more than a couple the night before
