I missed most of the fun of the School Supply Shopping Season while drowning in work (which is a shame, because I always love the extra-heady rush you get from going into that area. Even when it meant I had to actually go back to school, shopping for supplies was a favorite tradition). But I can still get all the rush of new beginnings, the anticipation of the Autumn Aesthetic, and maybe this year I will even go watch the Homecoming parade and/or track the calendar closely enough to pay attention to band concerts and other publicly accessible things I always realize I want to go to about a week after they happen.
If you need me for the rest of the day, I will be living in the "school supply haul" and related tags on Tumblr, and making Homer Simpson drooling noises.
